Reviews

On the Run tells, in gripping, hard-won detail, what it's like to be trapped on the wrong side of the law with no way out--the situation of so many young Black Americans today. A brilliant fieldworker and a smart analyst of what she saw and heard, Goffman has made a lasting contribution to our understanding of the administration of the law, urban life and race relations, in a book you will never forget reading. --Howard Becker, author of Writing for Social Scientists
