The Violent Gang
(A newly revised and expanded edition of Dr. Lewis Yablons...)
A newly revised and expanded edition of Dr. Lewis Yablonsky's classic study of violent urban gangs. Drawing on "live research" gathered while he was director of community crime-prevention program Yablonsky traces the "natural history" of two infamous New York City gangs. In their own words gang members tell why they murdered a fifteen-year-old polio victim and describe patterns of gang organization, leadership, alliances, warfare, and violence. Yablonsky also discusses programs for dealing with such groups and offers a new plan for gang control.In his introduction to his new edition, Dr. Yablonsky outlines significant parallels between the activities of teen-age gangs and the rebellious behavior of many of today's young people. There is also a new and vital chapter in the "patters of violence" that plague contemporary society.". . . a model of powerful and incisive writing in the field of sociology. . . . An important and immensely useful work."- Los Angeles Times

The Hippie Trip: A Firsthand Account of the Beliefs and Behaviors of Hippies in America By A Noted Sociologist
(A new, colorful, and fascinating drama has emerged on the...)
A new, colorful, and fascinating drama has emerged on the American scene. The action involves love, spiritually free sex, dope as a religious sacrament, and a new work ethic. And so sociologist Yablonsky begins his novel, giving the reader an opportunity to join him on his hippie trip. Yablonsky delves into the hippie movement as a sociologist, a hip interviewer/reporter, and as an involved person. This book includes experiences and perceptions from all three of these integral facets of Yablonskys personality. Yablonsky combines an extensive, coherent report on hippie life with a thorough look at the movement in relation to the wider societal issues of the time. The book begins with a Preview, an introduction into the scene, and then moves onto The Trip, Yablonskys actual journey. Part III, Analysis, examines the hippie movement in its own right and within the framework of American society. Part IV, The Appendix, is a presentation of data from questionnaires filled out by over seven hundred hippies. And there is, of course, a Glossary for all of you readers who may not be familiar with the terminology of the psychedelic movement.

The Tunnel Back: Synanon
(A penetrating look at a community of ex-drug addicts who ...)
A penetrating look at a community of ex-drug addicts who help one another through the exhausting experience of withdrawal and rehabilitation by using radical "haircutting" sessions in which members of the community probe their problems with savage candor. Here are Synanon's successes - a rehabilitation rate far higher than those of more "legitimate" agencies - as well as its failures. Here is a thoughtful and sympathetic analysis of Synanon's unique, and widely misunderstood, theories about addiction and its cure: the use of ex-addicts in weaning away narcotics users, the lifelong effects of addiction and the resultant need for a supportive environment. Here, too, is the troubled history of Synanon, both within the profession and with the greater society "outside" which all too often turns its back on the brutal facts of our nation's addiction problem.

This book offers an insider's look at the daily life, practical goals, and treatment of a therapeutic community. The text is supported throughout by recovering addicts who speak of their own experiences within a therapeutic community. These revealing stories demonstrate how individuals who start out resistant to help and protective of their addictions make the transition to healthy, productive lives.

Robopaths: People as Machines
(The robopaths are the people who pull the triggers at My ...)
The robopaths are the people who pull the triggers at My Lai, Kent State, and Attica, make policy in Washington, and live next door. Dehumanized by regimentation, bureaucratization, and indiscriminate violence, they are growing more numerous in today's society. In this searing book, Lewis Yablonsky sees them as the outcome of the struggle between humanity and its technological servants-whether computers, automobiles, or H-bombs. Like Charles Reich and Alvin Toffler, Yablonsky doesn't claim to have any ultimate answers. But he does believe that clues have been offered by various group approaches to human interaction, such as Synanon, psychodrama, and the hippie counterculture. These clues may point the way to the refashioning of our plastic society-a refashioning that will make people both more human and more humane.
