Anti-Intellectualism in American Life
<b>Winner of the 1964 Pulitzer Prize in Non-Fiction</b>. <br><br>In this award-winning classic work of consensus history, Richard Hofstadter, author of <i>The Age of Reform</i>, examines the role of social movements in the perception of intellect in American life. <br><br>"As Mr. Hofstadter unfolds the fascinating story, it is no crude battle of eggheads and fatheads. It is a rich, complex, shifting picture of the life of the mind in a society dominated by the ideal of practical success." --Robert Peel in the <i>Christian Science Monitor </i>
