Features: What is rank? It is not your profession, not where you live, not your table manners, not how much money you have or how much you can earn. Rank is a combination of subtle things, and it is hard to articulate clearly. It is precisely these subtle qualities that establish your place in the world. The author, with keen observation, a unique perspective, incisive analysis, and witty, humorous writing, provides a meticulous comparison of the social hierarchy phenomenon and the distinctions of different classes in American society.
