Reviews
Despite strong opening hints that this is going to be a genuinely significant examination of the role that money plays in the class structure of America, it soon becomes apparent that Lapham has written not so much a study with a well-developed thesis as a series of separate chapters loosely tied to the theme that Americans are obsessed by the desire to make money and that they never feel they have enough. The book is a curious melange of personal experiences, quotations, anecdotes, footnotes, and some rather dubious assertions. As a result the narrative is meandering and disconnected. General readers may find themselves tantalized at times.A. J. Anderson, G.S.L.I.S., Simmons Coll., Boston
