Summary: A Must Read
Comment: In the past, we could use Chicago or Philadelphia as models of the urban reality; however, the United States is rapidly becoming a more racially and ethnically diverse nation. The model of this current reality is Los Angeles. "Prismatic Metropolis: Inequality in Los Angeles" addresses questions of how race and ethnicity, space, gender and group identities and attitudes are linked in complex ways that result in divergent opportunities in the population. The editors (Lawrence D. Bobo, Melvin L. Oliver, James H. Johnson Jr. and Abel Valenzuela Jr.) and a distinguished group of younger scholars cover demographic transitions, economic restructuring, residential segregation, and the interplay of group identity, attitudes, and the dynamics of workplace interactions. "Prismatic Metropolis" is an essential starting place for understanding urban society in the 21st Century.
