Crosscutting Social Circles: Testing a Macrostructural Theory of Intergroup Relations

Crosscutting Social Circles describes a theory of groups' relations to each other, and tests the theory in the 125 largest metropolitan areas In the United States. The focus is on the Influence social structure exerts on intergroup relations. Blau and Schwartz show how role relations are influenced by how people are distributed among social positions. Examples are a community's racial composition, division of labor, ethnic heterogeneity, income Inequality, or the extent to which educational differences are related to income differences. Blau and Schwartz test their theory by considering its impact on such structural conditions as intermarriage, an important form of intergroup relations.The authors derive the main principles of previously formulated theories of intergroup relations and present them in simpler and clearer form. They empirically test the power of the theory by analyzing its ability to predict how social structure affects intermarriage in the largest American cities, where three-fifths of the American population live. They selected cities because population distribution of a small neighborhood might be affected by casual associations among neighbors; it is much more sociologically interesting if population distribution also affects mate selection in a city of millions.Unlike most theories that emphasize the implications of such cultural orientations as shared values and common norms, this volume focuses on the significance of various forms of inequality and heterogeneity. As one of the few books that supplies a large-scale empirical test of implications of a theory, Crosscutting Social Circles serves as a model. The new introduction by Peter Blau reviews the origins and impact of the book. It will be of immense value to sociologists, psychologists, and group relations specialists.

A complete and thorough introduction to all object-oriented concepts, this book uses the newest version of C++ programming language in its examples and illustrates object-oriented design. It presents a comparison of all major object-oriented programming languages, including Smalltalk, Eiffel, Objective-C and Object Pascal. In addition, the book maintains a completely object-oriented view toward all aspects of programming and extends the concept of object orientation to the programming environment.

This book will fill a void in the current Tcl/Tk bookshelf. It is written to the latest version of Tcl/Tk (8.0, perhaps 8.1, depending on Sun's release schedule) and addresses Tcl/Tk under Windows as well as Unix.  It includes discussions on proper coding techniques, instead of just language syntax. Clif Flynt gives readers a very 'hands on' book, with an emphasis towards allowing a reader to pick up the book as needed to find the answer to a question, instead of assuming that it will be read cover to cover.                                      · A sufficiently detailed overview of the Tcl/Tk language that readers can determine if this is the proper tool for their project.· Enough information that an experienced programmer can start working with the language immediately.· Hints and tips on how to use the language effectively. · Templates that will minimize the new language learning curve.Macintosh, Windows, Unix, LinuxUser requirements would be Windows 3.1 with 32bit DLL, Windows95, Windows NT, Macintosh, Unix, Linux, or Solaris.  A 386 or better CPU, 4 Meg Ram, and 4 Meg free disk space. Different packages will have different disk space requirements.  A good guess is 2 Meg / package.
