"Speaking wisely and provocatively about the political economy of race, Glenn C.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 a position developed over the past decade, this book 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."
