C. Wright Mills, Man for All Seasons
Bar Harbor Island, Fla.
I appreciated Norman Birnbaum's tribute to C. Wright Mills ["The Half-Forgotten Prophet," March 30], though I don't agree that he is a "half-forgotten prophet" or that he was "tied to his times," which suggests that his work was only relevant to the times in which he lived. His classics are still in print--White Collar, The Power Elite, The Sociological Imagination and C. Wright Mills: Letters and Autobiographical Writings as well as the book under review.
