About this title

Synopsis

Jay MacLeod's account of how American life looks from the bottom - of anticipated immobility rather than mobility- addresses one of the most important questions in modern social theory and policy: How is class inequality reproduced over generations?

About the Author

A Rhodes scholar, Jay MacLeod holds degrees in social studies and theology. He and his wife, Sally Asher, spent four years in Mississippi, where their work with local teenagers led to the publication of Minds Stayed on Freedom: The Civil Rights Struggle in the Rural South, An Oral History (WestviewPress). MacLeod is now an Anglican priest in Chesterfield, a declining mining and market town in Asher's native England.
