Book excerpt: Situating Wilson's work on race and class in the overall contexts of sociology and radical politics, this book considers the contribution of, and the debate surrounding, each of his major works--including The Declining Significance of Race, The Truly Disadvantaged, and When Work Disappears. The crucial place of segregation in the critiques of Wilson's theory is emphasized, and the role of the state is considered. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
