The interest is in measuring the changes in the mental attitudes of solid working class blokes, i.e. their normative orientation converging with the mindset of some UK white collar chaps. Such a change is defined using the Marxist term "embourgeoisement." Their well formulated interviewing programme yields enduring results. Explanatory footnotes and charts, tables, index, and an extensive bibliography are included.
