Richard Sennett is one of the world's leading sociologists & this book first published in 1970 was his first single-authored work. It launched his exploration of communities & how they live in cities & outlined his view that order breeds narrow violence-prone lives while an 'equilibrium of disorder' brings vigour & diversity to urban life. The New York Times" described it as 'the best available contemporary defence of anarchism'. " The Uses of Disorder" followed the student & urban rebellions of the late 1960s. But it remains uncannily apposite to the problems of city life forty years on. In a new preface Sennett considers the response to the book over those years & relates it to the circumstances faced by the inhabitants of cities in the twenty-first century. The body of the text remains unchanged ready for a new generation of readers." ...

When a society becomes more affluent does it lose other values? Are the skills that education & literacy gave millions wasted on consuming pop culture? Do the media coerce us into a world of the superficial & the material
- or can they be a force for good? When Richard Hoggart asked these questions in his 1957 book The Uses of Literacy" Britain was undergoing huge social change yet his landmark work has lost none of its pertinence & power today. Hoggart gives a fascinating insight into the close-knit values of Northern England's vanishing working-class communities & weaves this together with his views on the arrival of a new homogenous 'mass' US-influenced culture. His headline-grabbing bestseller opened up a whole new area of cultural study & remains essential reading both as a historical document & as a commentary on class poverty & the media."
