About This Item
Cambridge, UK ; Malden, Mas: Polity Press, 1999. Near Fine. Social class differences and inequalities are alive and flourishing in cont emporary Britain. In reviewing a wide range of sources, this book provides easy access to the empirical research on social class. It illustrates how c lass differences reach into society, affecting not only life-styles but als o life-chancesbirth, health and death. Reid demonstrates how social class i s related to most aspects of life in Britain including: differences in weal th and income, education and qualifications, work and leisure, expectation of life and experience of health, housing, sex and family relationships, an d political and religious beliefs and activity. It provides a comprehensive view of the nature of social class in Britain and discusses how the concep t of class has been used in empirical research. In sum, it presents a very serious challenge to the hope or promise that Britain is moving toward a cl assless society. It is written for a very wide-ranging audience including s tudents, social scientists, teachers, politicians and administrators.
