Taking It Big: C. Wright Mills and the Making of Political Intellectuals
Stanley Aronowitz
C. Wright Mills (1916-1962) was a pioneering intellectual who transformed the independent American Left in the 1940s and 1950s. Often challenging the established ideologies and approaches of fellow leftist thinkers, Mills was central to creating and developing the idea of the "public intellectual" in postwar America and laid the political foundations for the rise of the New Left in the 1960s. Written by Stanley Aronowitz, a leading sociologist and critic of American culture and politics, Taking It Big reconstructs this icon's life and career and the new dimension of American political life that followed his work.
