Anti-Intellectualism in American Life

Summary

Winner of the 1964 Pulitzer Prize in Non-Fiction. This book throws light on many features of the American character. Its concern is not merely to portray the scorners of intellect in American life, but to say something about what the intellectual is, and can be, as a force in a democratic society.
