Somebodies and Nobodies: Overcoming the Abuse of Rank
by Robert W. Fuller

"A shrewd and compelling look at the crucial but usually unperceived role of rank in all our lives. How easily we put down those we see as subordinate in title or wealth or origin; how silently we cringe at another's assumption of superiority... The abuse of rank [also] corrupts relations between nations, and between the governors and the governed in a democracy. Robert Fuller ... makes us understand that equal dignity, whatever one's place in society or the world, is a key to peace and social order."
--Anthony Lewis, Pulitzer prize-winning columnist for The New York Times
