Anxious Intellects
John Michael
Academic Professionals, Public Intellectuals, and Enlightenment Values. This was quite a dense read, and it took me ages to get through it. It also made me feel pretty dumb. However! I did enjoy Michael's discussions about Trekkies, Stephen Hawking, and the friction between science and cultural studies. This book also gives a good analysis of why so many intelligent people I know are loathe to identify themselves as intellectuals.
