Howard Brick is Professor of History and Louis Evans Chair in U.S. History at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor. He is the author of Age of Contradiction: American Thought and Culture in the 1960s, also from Cornell, and Daniel Bell and the Decline of Intellectual Radicalism: Social Theory and Political Reconciliation in the 1940s.

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)
