Interesting Research, Thought Provoking Conlusions

An excellent read for anyone who considers themselves a member of the American left. The author offers important considerations for all activists who think they are doing the right thing. Croteau carefully describes how far the middle class left and the working class have drifted from each other. The conclusions he draws are well thought out and, at times, surprising. The research methods that he uses are interesting and thought provoking. Croteau does nothing to conceal his biases; it was nice to read a book by someone so up front about his goals.
