Reviews

A valuable perspective on student movements and politics. 
*Choice*

The book has three great strengths: its 'prefigurative politics' thesis, which is both brilliant and convincing; its clear, straightforward writing; and finally, its short text... Students will love it.
*University of California, Irvine*

Intellectually provocative and emotionally rewarding - a wise and hopeful gift from the '60s to the '80s.
*Boston University*
