2004-05-30 A brilliant study of deviance and constructing otherness

Empirical rather than theoretical, this was a book I found profoundly scholarly (and I see that as praise). Discussing freaks as a culture and a profession, and showing great understanding and humility throughout, the author manages to write a fabulous social history of perceived deviance. In an age of reality TV, this should be mandatory reading in school.
