About the Author:
Nicolaus Mills is a professor of American Studies at Sarah Lawrence College, an editorial board member of Dissent, and a contributor to the "American Prospect," the "New York Times," and the "Los Angeles Times,"
From Library Journal:
All but a few of the 15 essays that form this book originally appeared in the left-of-center opinion magazine Dissent. Each essay critically examines touchstones of what editor Mills calls the "conservative culture of the 1980s." Among the best pieces are Herman Schwartz's "Civil Rights and the Reagan Court," Robert Reich's look at corporate takeovers in "A Culture of Paper Tigers," Sean Wilentz's profile of Jerry Falwell in "The Trials of Televangelism," and Mark Caldwell's "The Literature of AIDS." This intelligent collection nicely complements John Taylor's Circus of Ambition ( LJ 8/89), another questioning look back at the Eighties. Recommended especially for libraries lacking Dissent. -- Kenneth F. Kister, Tampa, Fla.
