Description

In A Man's Grasp Should Exceed His Reach, author Leonard Cain delivers a biographical study of Austin Porterfield, a noted sociologist from a small university. This erudite work traces the life of Porterfield from his meager upbringing in an impoverished region of the Ozarks to his influential tenure as a Professor of Sociology at Texas Christian University. Emphasis is given to Porterfield's roles as founder and first editor of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior and as a pioneer in several fields of sociology. About the Author Leonard Cain is Professor of Sociology and Urban Studies Emeritus at Portland State University, Oregon. He received his Ph.D. in Sociology at the University of Texas-Austin.
