description: From greed to glasnost, the 80s were the decade when brash was beautiful and the only sin was not to win. Madonna declared there was nothing wrong with being a Material Girl and Cindy Lauper spoke for all girls who just wanted to have fun. Did we say, Girls? Yes, the word took on new self-empowering meanings. At the same time Princess Diana went from shy schoolteacher to worlds most famous woman to thoroughly modern mom as her marriage slid from fairy tale to farce. In the lavishly illustrated keepsake, youll relive all the highs and woes of a decade that mad Bill Cosby the king of prime-time, the Berlin Wall a pile of rubble, cable TV and the fax machine ubiquitous and two otherworldly characters world famous? Michael Jackson, he of the white glove, and ET, phoning home across the cosmos.
