"Lustig has not only mastered the fundamental tendency of American political theory but has succeeded in placing the ideological and theoretical debates in the context of the development of the U.S. economy as a whole..."--Stanley Aronowitz [from the back cover]Although this book was published in 1982, every single page is timely, riveting and relevant to today.  I think it is a historical masterpiece, and Lustig is a masterful writer.  I actually cried when there were no more pages to read. --sharon
