"Habits of the Heart is, rare among works of scholarly origin, an
outspoken and even emotional plea for attention to an argument, and
a danger. Its power is in the passion of its analysis, the vision
of us...narrowing the gap between the inordinate rewards of success
and the not less inordinate punishments for failure, in economic
terms, in the society."
*Los Angeles Times*
"(A) brilliant analysis. Easily the richest and most readable study
of American society . . . since The Lonely Crowd."
*Newsweek*
