Anmeldelser
«“The Vertical Mosaic will be a touchstone for social studies in Canada.”»
Robert Fulford, Toronto Star
«“This book is a ‘must’ for those seeking to understand Canadian society, its inner workings and motivations ... None will read it without being stimulated and better informed about our society.”»
Tommy Douglas, The Globe and Mail
«“The Vertical Mosaic is a milestone in Canadian intellectual history. Both academics and the general reading public have waited a long time for this study to appear. They have not been disappointed. In both richness of detail and rigour of analysis, it has few rivals.”»
Martin Robin, American Political Science Review
«“Porter has written a masterpiece of empirical sociology, and no one can be properly informed about the structure of Canadian society until he has absorbed the contents of this monograph.”»
