Synopsis

For four decades, Herbert J. Gans has been one of the leading sociologists in the United States. His writing on American communities, culture, and ethnicity have been widely read here and elsewhere, and his incisive analyses of antipoverty policy and other social policies have been influential in many policy analysis offices and government agencies. This new collection of Gans's scholarly and other writings, including excerpts from his most prominent ethnographic books, "The Urban Villagers", "The Levittowners", and "Deciding What's News", will be a thoughtprovoking resource for social scientists, students, and all those who care about America.
