title: The fourth turning.
abstract: As history has a way of repeating itself, looking at the past can offer some insight into the future. If, as the authors of the discussed book point out, the country is soon facing a crisis, we can prepare for it rather than waiting for it to happen. During the unraveling of an old culture when chaos is the order of the day, the opportunity for participating in the development of a new order is open to anyone willing to invest in the future.
