Social Problems: Continuity and Change
As always in my books, I express my personal and professional debt to two sociologists, Norman Miller and Forrest Dill. Norman Miller was my first sociology professor in college and led me in his special way into a discipline and profession that became my life’s calling. Forrest Dill was my adviser in graduate school and helped me in ways too numerous to mention. His untimely death shortly after I began my career robbed the discipline of a fine sociologist and took away a good friend.
My professional life since graduate school has been at the University of Maine, where my colleagues over the
years have nurtured my career and provided a wonderful working environment. I trust they will see their concern
for social problems reflected in the pages that follow. Thanks to them all for being who they are.
