Review

A book which will take its place with Middletown and Plainville, U.S.A merits a place among the classics, a must’ for all students of discrimination and prejudice.” International Journal of Social Psychiatry

The study itself is in the best traditions of social science research a thorough field investigation gov�erned by the rigid formulae of validation that have become characteristic of American sociologists.” The Review of Politics

This book will be important to non-American read�ers as an insight into the lives of some less publicized practitioners of the American way of life.” Man
