Probably no book has ever investigated and analysed class and gender relationships as comprehensively and categorically as this one, which not only distinguishes between a hegemonic class and a subordinate pseudo-class on both alpha and omega terms within both what the author describes as upper- and lower-order contexts, but logically demonstrates the disciplinary implications of the subversions of class and pseudo-class positions from either 'above' (upper-order control of society) or from 'below' (lower-order control of society), with contrasting approaches to civilization - and hence society - in each case, whether of the female-dominated alpha or of the male-dominated omega. - A Centretruths editorial
