Summary

"There's a lot of talk about 'getting back to class, ' as if all the other things that have concerned social theorists for the last couple of decades were a waste of time. Here's a book that gets back to class a lot wiser for that experience. Even when you don't agree with the contributors, they make you think, and very productively. What more can you ask from a book?"--Doug Henwood, author of "A New Economy"
