The first lines of the foreword make you sit up, even if you have heard of the book you are beginning to read- Stephen J. Dubner writes ” I believe that Sudhir Venkatesh was born with two abnormalities: an overdeveloped curiosity and an underdeveloped sense of fear”. I speak of a very interesting book I just read: ” Gang Leader For A Day ” by Sudhir Venkatesh. The blurb says ” A rogue sociologist crosses the line” !
