New York Random House, 1995 0394589130 / 9780394589138 First Edition Hard Cover 
498 pages, map endpapers, cloth, dj, very good. 1st edition. From the dj, 'Millions of readers literally defined their lives through Gail Sheehy's international bestseller Passages, named by a Library of Congress survey as one of the most influential books of our times. Seven years ago she set out to write a sequel, but instead she discovered a historic revolution in the adult life cycle. People are taking longer to grow up and much longer to die, thereby shifting all the stages of adulthood - by up to ten years. She traces radical changes for the generations now in the Tryout Twenties and Turbulent Thirties and finds baby boomers in the Flourishing Forties rejecting the whole notion of middle age. In its place Gail Sheehy discovers and maps out a completely new frontier - Second Adulthood in middle life.'

3 SHEEHY, GAIL The man who changed the world. The lives of Mikhail S. Gorbachev.
New York Harpercollins, 1990 0060165472 / 9780060165475 First Edition Hard Cover Very Good in Good dust jacket 
xiv,401p., 8 pls., cloth, dj. 1st edition, very good. From the dj: Among the great visionary statesmen of our century Mikhail Gorbachev stands as one of the giants and yet remains the most enigmatic. A daring risk taker who is still under the romantic thrall of communism, a bestower of democracy who takes the powers of a dictator into his own hands, a diplomat who is idealized throughout the West yet belittled at home. Gorbachev has transformed the world, while hesitating at the brink of his own radical psychological transformation - one that would enable him to see to its completion the revolution he so thrillingly began. Gail Sheehy's brilliant biography is the human story of this inner struggle, a struggle that is the culmination of the series of lives Gorbachev has led throughout his career. Drawing on a year of research in the Soviet Union, during which she had unparalleled access to Gorbachev's home village, friends, and colleagues, the author of Passages presents the first full-scale portrait of this unique figure.
