Was there no further explanation or was the whole thing just passed over? I can understand not being interested in studying the subject one's self but I'm baffled one could fail to see that it could be an important subject and rather disappointed (though surprised) that a senior sociologist could be that rude!

I'm amazed that someone could so ill-informed! Do you think some traditional sociologists just don't understand the value of this work?
