Summary
  • "Speaking wisely and provocatively about the political economy of race, Glenn Loury has become one of our most prominent black intellectuals - and, because of his challenges to the orthodoxies of both left and right, one of the most controversial.
  • A major statement of his views developed over the past decade, this book both epitomizes and explains Loury's understanding of the depressed conditions of so much of black society today - and the origins, consequences, and implications for the future of these conditions."--BOOK JACKET.
