Intellectuals and the American Presidency examines the complex relationships between Presidents and America's intellectuals since 1960. Using both popular sources and some never-before-used archived material, the book looks at the advisers who served as liaisons to the academic community, as well as the presidents' views of intellectuals and how they fit in with the presidents' plans. In this bipartisan study, political insider Tevi Troy analyzes how American presidents have used intellectuals to shape their images and advance their agendas.
