""The Apple Spliced" presents nineteen sociological studies of New York City -- the "Big Apple" -- by faculty members, graduates, and graduate students of the Ph.D. Program in Sociology of the City of New York. The primary purpose of the book is to describe and illuminate some of the facets of this complex and magnetic metropolis, known for its heterogeneity, persistent vitality, expansive joys, and regions of despair. The volume presents New York City, "warts and all." Fear, impersonality, gross inequality, bureaucracies reacting at a glacial pace, and the dark side of the bright lights are all portrayed in these pages. Yet the volume is an affirmation of the city in general and of New York City in particular. In several chapters, New York is revealed as a place of opportunity -- for ethnic groups, ambitious youths struggling against heavy odds, and workers in special occupations, to mention just a few. Suburbanites abandon the residential dreams of the 1950s and 1960s to become "real New Yorkers." Visitors come from all over the world. Entrepreneurs find opportunities.".
