...into the late 1960s and the 1970s, where would he have taken James Bond? Ian Fleming would hardly have approved of the direction the world took post-the 1964 General Election and the end of 'The Land of Lost Content'. The Beatles, The Rollng Stones, Harold Wlson's brand of new Socialism, 'White Heat', The Beat Movement, the Energy Crisis, Man on the Moon, the Hippy Revolution, Habitual drug use, the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, Ian Smith in Rhodesia, the Nuclear Deterrent etc. etc. etc.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on what Fleming might have written about in this broad subject area on the background of the late 1960s and 1970s.
