The Baby Boom generation is not going quietly into the night. In entertaining detail, Gary Alan Fine, perhaps the finest ethnographer of that generation, shows us how and why they continue to cause beautiful trouble in politics. Fair Share is a pleasure to read. -- James M. Jasper, CUNY Graduate Center
