Documenting the transformation of American welfare philosophy, this study shows how policy failure, the war in Vietnam, domestic violence and the struggle for black equality combined to create a climactic crisis in national politics which destroyed the promise of the Great Society.

"Davies traces in telling detail the process by which American liberals in the 1960s moved to the left in their thinking about approaches to dealing with poverty. His excellent book rests on extraordinarily deep research, is written with clarity and verve, and deserves a wide readership". -- James T. Patterson, author of America's Struggle Against Poverty, 1900-1994. "Reading Davies' account, one sees afresh how the Great Society became the Great Punching Bag for a generation of conservatives and neoconservatives". -- Hugh Heclo, author of A Government of Strangers.
