    "The labeling-interactionist sociologists, although actually producing few studies on the process of the collective definition of deviance, have developed a framework that allows for the study of the macro-sociological process of deviance definition."

    It's a book on the medicalisation of deviance by Conrad & Schneider.

    I'm hate how academic books have such long winded ways of saying things. I've studied Sociology for 5 years now I even I don't understand that line.

    "Neither Harkavay nor Booker had got the whole story - for one thing, That was adamant about not giving that smarmy little prick Frederick Clawson so much as a mention - but it was still good enough to rate a wider circulation than either the AP wire service or the book publishing industry's trade magazine could give."
