If anyone's looking for an excellent biography or critical evaluation of the work of #sociologist C. Wright Mills (author of The #PowerElite, Causes of World War 3, etc.), I highly recommend #StanleyAronowitz's Taking It Big: C. Wright Mills & the Making of Political #Intellectuals.
It assesses Mills's major works & how he continuously worked to make public interventions, during a repressive political era in the US (1940s & 1950s), at odds w/ the Stalinist left & liberal apologists. #reading

"Due to his terminal illness John had an 'I'-shaped recovery."
Things like 'K'-shaped recovery are not a #recovery. Please don't use #Orwellian #newspeak.
Say #theft.
