Review Quotes:
'Every now and then a social scientist writes a book that can best be described as charming. Such is the case with Fran Waksler's latest creation. Waksler, already known for her pithy style, witicisms, and lively prose, has given us a little gem Readers will relish each episode.' - Human Studies
