RADICAL NOMAD: C. WRIGHT MILLS AND HIS TIMES, by Tom Hayden (Paradigm Publishers, 2006)
Hayden cogently traces Mills's scholarship and his progressive activism to the events and thinkers of earlier generations. Ideas in major books by Mills (The Power Elite, New Men of Power, White Collar, Character and Social Structure, The Sociological Imagination) can now be better understood in light of the influences on Mills during and before his time, including the impact of two world wars, the Great Depression and the New Deal, the failures of the Soviet state, and changing relations between workers and industry in America and worldwide. The book thus brings us a new and much more complete understanding of Mills's political theories and philosophy.

THE PORT HURON STATEMENT, with a new introduction (Thunders’ Mouth Press, 2005)
Howard Zinn writes, “the Port Huron Statement is one of those historic documents which represents an era. It excited, educated, and inspired a whole generation of young people to join the struggle against racial injustice, war, poverty and the loss of true democracy. Tom Hayden’s introductory essay is a brilliant exposition on how those words in 1962 have critical meaning for the world we live in now.”
