xii I PREFACEKovner , Garth Mangum, Gary T. Marx, Thomas A. Reppetto, DavidRiesman, Martin Shefter, and Lester C. Thurow. The entire, oralmost entire, manuscript was read by Martin Meyerson , Margy EIlinMeyerson, Milton Friedman, Frances Fox Piven, and James Q.Wilson. Margaret Locke and Mark Petri provided research assistancein the early stages ofthe work. Lawrence D. Brown , who prepared themanuscript for the press, called attention to and helped eliminate II?numerous confusions of thought; if it were not for him the book wouldbe in many respects poorer. Mrs. Carla Kirmani was a painstakingtypist. I am very grateful to them all. I am grateful also to the Joint.Center for Urban Studies of the Massachusetts Institute of Technol-ogy and Harvard University, which supported the undertaking gener-ously over a considerable period.Although written for this book, Chapter Nine appeared first inJamesQ. Wilson, ed., The Metropolitan Enigma (Cambridge, Mass.Harvard University Press, 1968). Chapter Eleven is a much-revisedversion of an article that appeared in the Fall, 1968 , issue of Daeda-lus.1970 c.R.
