Reviews

Robert J. Sampson's analysis has critical implications for both social science and social policy, and Great American City is a must read for anyone interested in either topic. (Science) It is simply impossible to write about cities in the same way after reading this book. (Public Books)


Robert J. Sampson's very readable research findings are theoretically rich, cutting-edge in urban research, and should be inspirational for future researchers in urban sociology. . . . A definite must read for anyone interested in groundbreaking upper-level urban sociology. Essential. <br>--Choice
