| Summary: | At 28, he was Dean of Yale Law School; at 30, president of the University of Chicago. By his mid-thirties, Robert Maynard Hutchins was an eminent figure in the world of educational innovation and liberal politics. Yet, when he was 75, he told a friend, "I should have died at 35." Milton Mayer, Hutchin's colleague, gives an intimate picture of this fallible man who participated in many important US social and political controversies. He captures the energy and intellectual fervour Hutchins brought to the fields of law, politics, civil rights and public affairs. |
