Its innovative combination of ethnographic observation and social science theory epitomized the Chicago school of sociology.Praise for a previous edition:“It is a classic which remains relevant largely because it poses questions still unresolved.”—Choice“One is still impressed by the relevance of certain chapters, particularly the way in which urban problems are descriptively yet perceptively presented, a relevance that applies to the problems as much as their academic study.”—Urban StudiesHeritage of Sociology Series1925, 2019 256 p. 51/2 x 81/2 8 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-63650-4 $25.00 Your Price: $20.00

Citizen BrownRace, Democracy, and Inequality in the St. Louis SuburbsColin Gordon“Citizen Brown arrives at a propitious moment, when many Americans are still trying to make sense of how and why one of the most explosive incidents in American race relations—the 2014 killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri—occurred not in a center city, where so many of the nation’s best-known racial dramas have played out over the last fifty years, but in a suburb. . . . Citizen Brown is a pioneering foray into a larger, more complicated consideration of the recent history of race relations in American suburbs.”—Mark Krasovic, author of The Newark Frontier2019 216 p. 6 x 9 46 halftones 10 Cloth ISBN: 978-0-226-64748-7 $35.00 Your Price: $28.00

Rios“Rios shows how gang-associated Latino youth, often written off as a ‘lost generation,’ contain multitudes of identities and brim over with promise.

The Death GapHow Inequality KillsDavid A. Ansell, MD“The Death Gap describes critical health inequalities in the United States, which are drawn from Ansell’s gripping first-person experiences as a leading practi-tioner operating in Chicago’s medical safety net.

Bost analyzes a renaissance of writing that sparked in these years [1978-1995] a second Harlem Renaissance, although one whose contributors were more openly gay. . . .

As a participant/observer and an Israeli living in the United States, Omer combines personal reflections with an ethnographic frame and sophisticated theo-retical analysis to explore the way one non-Zionist religious community grapples with its deep commit-ment to Jewish life and its equally profound devotion to a Jewishly informed critique of injustice. Omer shows that what is at stake is not simply political, but a re-fashioning of Jewishness itself. . . .

As important as it is fun, The Culture of Feedback shows us how science and American culture shaped each other in the 1970s and, in the process, shaped our lives today.”—Fred Turner, author of From Counterculture to Cyberculture2019 264 p. 6 x 9 8 color plates, 13 halftones 48 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-65253-5 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

Inside ScienceStories from the Field in Human and Animal ScienceRobert E. Kohler“Kohler treats his readers to a thought-provoking study of situated knowledge in the making in this brilliant deliberation on the power of context in the history of anthropology, sociology, primatology, and wildlife ecology. Kohler elegantly combines compel-ling biographical accounts . . . with incisive analyses of a scientific tradition that is far more important than is usually recognized.”—Bernard Lightman, York University2019 264 p. 6 x 9 49 Cloth ISBN: 978-0-226-61798-5 $35.00 Your Price: $28.00

On the Heels of IgnorancePsychiatry and the Politics of Not KnowingOwen Whooley“Essential reading for anyone interested in psychia-try’s past fortunes and future prospects. Whooley gives us an arresting interpretation of American psychiatry’s history, challenges, and resiliency, from its origins in the nineteenth-century asylum to its recent embrace of neuroscience. In boldly conceived episodes, Whooley deftly shows how psychiatrists repeatedly and optimistically reinvented their discipline when faced with professional crises.” —Elizabeth Lunbeck, author of The Americanization of Narcissism2019 304 p. 6 x 9 2 halftones 50 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-61638-4 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

Mobilizing MutationsHuman Genetics in the Age of Patient AdvocacyDaniel Navon“A brilliant insight in the cutting edge of genomics. Navon expertly reveals how genetic knowledge changes our identities, biologies, and diseases and, vice versa, how social action allows some genetic mutations to define who we are while others languish in medical journals. The genomic revolution is a social revolution.”—Stefan Timmermans, University of California, Los Angeles“With an engaging and persuasive style, Navon sheds new light on the profound impact of genetic diag-noses on individuals, families, advocacy groups, and society as a whole.”—Brenda M. Finucane, Geisinger Autism & Developmental Medicine Institute2019 384 p. 6 x 9 11 halftones, 3 tables 51 Cloth ISBN: 978-0-226-63809-6 $40.00 Your Price: $32.00

New Edition

Just WordsLaw, Language, and Power, Third EditionJohn M. Conley, William M. O’Barr, and Robin Conley RinerOn the first edition:“From their careful analyses of discourse in legal settings as diverse as rape trials and divorce media-tions, Conley and O’Barr demonstrate convincingly that power relationships pervade legal process. Just Words is both an engaging introduction to the study of legal anthropology and a model for how such work should be done.”—Lawrence M. Solan, Brooklyn Law SchoolJust Words shows how questions of justice can be fruitfully explored through the field of linguistics. This third edition brings this essential text up to date with new chapters on nonverbal communication in legal settings and law, language, and race.Chicago Series in Law and Society1998, 2005, 2019 264 p. 6 x 9 1 line drawing 53 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-48436-5 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

Speaking for the DyingLife-and-Death Decisions in Intensive CareSusan P. ShapiroSeven in ten Americans over the age of age of sixty who require medical decisions in the final days of their life lack the capacity to make them. For many of us, our biggest, life-and-death decisions—literally —will therefore be made by someone else. Speaking for the Dying draws on daily observations over more than two years in two intensive care units in a diverse urban hospital. This book shines a bright light on a role few of us will escape and offers steps that patients and loved ones, health care providers, lawyers, and policymakers can undertake before it is too late.Chicago Series in Law and Society2019 368 p. 6 x 9 15 line drawings, 13 tables 54 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-61574-5 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

On the OutsidePrisoner Reentry and ReintegrationDavid J. Harding, Jeffrey D. Morenoff, and Jessica J. B. Wyse“The vast increase in the number of its citizens America incarcerates means that a huge number of people leave prison each year. On the Outside is a cru-cial analysis of how the truly disadvantaged people who enter prison fare in the three years after their release.”—Paula England, New York University“In a powerful mixed-method analysis, On the Out-side reframes the policy conversation around prisoner reentry, from recidivism to reintegration. This book should be read by all those interested in incarceration and its connections to poverty and racial inequality in America.”—Bruce Western, Columbia University2019 304 p. 6 x 9 4 line drawings, 8 tables 55 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-60764-1 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

Law and Society in a Populist AgeBalancing Individual Rights and the Common GoodAmitai Etzioni“Ambitiously takes on a wide range of issues, from immigration and Brexit to private data collection and government surveillance, and explains why a liberal communitarian approach can help resolve seem-ingly unrepairable rifts. Etzioni’s call for respectful dialogue and his sensible compromise positions on hot-button topics should trigger long-overdue policy changes.”—Christopher Slobogin, Vanderbilt UniversityDistributed for Bristol University Press2018 224 p. 51/2 x 81/2 56 Cloth ISBN: 978-1-5292-0025-6 $34.95 NSA Your Price: $27.96

Sociology 11

Thinking Through StatisticsJohn Levi Martin“A fundamental commandment in statistics is ‘Researcher, know thy data.’ Martin takes this com-mandment seriously. In a set of nine information-rich chapters, he develops a persuasive argument that sociologists have relied too often on statisticians for guidance on how to develop and test empirical models.”—Choice2018 400 p. 6 x 9 15 halftones, 56 line drawings, 25 tables 58 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-56763-1 $35.00 Your Price: $28.00

Thinking Through MethodsA Social Science PrimerJohn Levi Martin“Thinking Through Methods combines a hard-nosed commitment to scholarly ideals with an endless array of provocative and clever things to say. This is a very creative work on sociological methods and there is enormous wisdom to be found in it.”—Jeremy Freese, Stanford University2017 280 p. 6 x 9 3 line drawings, 2 tables 59 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-43172-7 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

EvidenceHoward S. Becker“Becker calls Evidence a book he’s been writing for the seventy years of his professional life as a distinguished social scientist and—dare one say?—philosopher. For, beyond being a handbook for do-ing—and understanding— research, this is a guide to seeking the truth of day-to-day lives. No social scientist, humanist, or philosopher could imagine a better time for its appearance given the rise of reck-less demagogic claims for a ‘post-truth’ age and their disparagement not just of science but democracy and our shared humanity.”—Michael Joyce, author of Foucault, in Winter, in the Linnaeus Garden2017 240 p. 6 x 9 2 tables 60 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-46637-8 $20.00 Your Price: $16.00

The Sociology of Howard S. BeckerTheory with a Wide HorizonAlain Pessin“Part transatlantic dialogue, part paean to intel-lectual friendship, this volume is essential reading for anyone looking to understand the work of one of America’s greatest sociological craftsmen and, more broadly, sociology as a flexible science. Like the best of Becker’s work, this volume is a collec-tive accomplishment, with Pessin aptly developing the standards provided by ‘Howie,’ and a dazzling overture solo by Kornblum. This book shows what it looks like to do theory without a capital t.” —Claudio Benzecry, Northwestern University2017 144 p. 51/2 x 81/2 61 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-36285-4 $25.00 Your Price: $20.00

RevolutionStructure and Meaning in World HistorySaïd Amir Arjomand“A masterful synthesis of knowledge about revolu-tions in the ancient and medieval world. Written by one of the world’s leading scholars on the Iranian revolution, this book offers a wealth of insights on revolutions that do not rely on the modern revolu-tionary myth.”—Hans Joas, Humboldt University of Berlin“It is a rare treat to find a book so ambitious in its aims. Arjomand’s scholarship is deep, his writing clear, and his analysis insightful. This bold, fascinat-ing book is highly recommended to all scholars and students of revolution.”—George Lawson, author of Negotiated Revolutions2019 400 p. 6 x 9 3 tables 62 Cloth ISBN: 978-0-226-02683-1 $55.00 Your Price: $44.00

Engineered to SellEuropean Émigrés and the Making of Consumer CapitalismJan L. LogemannIn Engineered to Sell, Jan Logemann traces the trans-national careers of consumer engineers in advertis-ing, market research and commercial design who transformed capitalism from the 1930s through the 1960s. He argues that the history of marketing con-sumer goods is not a story of American exceptional-ism. Instead, the careers of immigrants point to the limits of the ‘Americanization’ paradigm. By focus-ing on the transnational lives of émigré consumer researchers, marketers, and designers, Engineered to Sell details the processes of cultural translation and adaptation that mark both the mid-century transfor-mation of American marketing and the subsequent European shift to ‘American’ consumer capitalism.2019 352 p. 6 x 9 21 halftones, 1 table 63 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-66015-8 $35.00 Your Price: $28.00
