Summary: In "Distinction", Pierre Bourdieu brilliantly illuminates the social pretentions of the middle classes in the modern world. Focusing on the French bourgeoisie -- its tastes and preferences -- "Distinction" is at once a vast ethnography of contemporary France and a dissection of the bourgeois mind.
