James A. Coleman

    James Samuel Coleman fut un sociologue et théoricien américain dont le travail a considérablement influencé la sociologie de l'éducation et les politiques publiques. Il est reconnu comme l'un des premiers promoteurs du concept de « capital social », et ses cadres théoriques ont jeté les bases de recherches ultérieures dans ce domaine. Ses études ont examiné la dynamique de la société adolescente et le rôle crucial de l'éducation, avec des rapports marquants qui ont transformé la théorie éducative et les politiques nationales concernant l'égalité et la productivité aux États-Unis.

      BOOK CIRCLE is a fast-moving, action-packed story about a real, notorious gang of teenagers. They cared little about who they stomped, what vandalism they did, or whose car they swiped in their attempts to get back at the "codger" and "bags" of the community.The inside details of the many jobs they pulled, how the kids behave toward each other, and what they really think of adults is plainly revealed.Although the story is about teenagers and written for teenagers it is a gutsy book and not for the squeamish or chicken-hearted. The story will "turn off" most adults but it is MUST reading for those parents who refuse to understand their teenagers as a lesson in what can happen if their kids finally "tune them out".AUTHOR A. Coleman is a retired college physics professor. However, he has spent a good deal of time as an unpaid street worker helping troubled youths, especially those who organized into street gangs. The CIRCLE is a fictionalised story of one of these gangs. Coleman is also a well-established author of science books for the layman.
