The Other American : The Life Of Michael Harrington

  • The Other American : The Life Of Michael Harrington

  • Attribution

    Maurice Isserman

  • Publication Details

    Book, PublicAffairs, 2000

  • Description

    The critically praised biography of “the man who discovered poverty” and inspired a generation-now in paperback for scholars and anyone else interested in American politics, the politics of poverty, and the history of the New Left. And he explains why Harrington, who more than any other single individual seemed perfectly positioned to play the role of adult mentor to the New Left in the 1960s, instead fell into disfavor with young campus activists, and lost the opportunity of a lifetime to make his Democratic Socialist perspective a relevant force in American politics.

Adventures Of A Bystander

  • Adventures Of A Bystander

  • Attribution

    Peter F. Drucker

  • Publication Details

    Book, 1st ed, Harper & Row, 1979

  • Description

    In a style that is both unique and engaging, Drucker conveys his life story -from his early teen years in Vienna through the interwar years in Europe, the New Deal era, World War II, and the postwar period in America-through intimate profiles of a host of fascinating people he’s known through the years. A colorful group, these diverse, often unpredictable, always multidimensional individuals were chosen “because each of them, in his or her own highly personal way, reflects and refracts the thirty crucial years from the end of World War I to the first post-World War II decade-the thirty years that largely formed the world in which we now live.” Shedding light on a turbulent and important era, Adventures of a Bystander also reflects Peter Drucker himself as a man of imaginative sympathy and enormous interest in people, ideas, and history. “Adventures of a Bystander is a virtuoso performance in which Drucker displays a dazzling diversity of personal interests and knowledge, an awesome power of recall, and a crisp, highly readable writing style.” (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)
