Howard Brick has performed an important service and produced a remarkable book.... What Brick has done is to remind us of just how important ideas were in the 1960s and, equally important, to illustrate how these various threads of 1960s life—the political, the social, and the intellectual—all wound in and out of one another.... As a result, we cannot look back on the decade the same way ever again.- Alexander Bloom (The Journal of American History)
