About the Book
This book is the first attempt to understand Britain's night-time economy, the violence that pervades it, and the bouncers whose job it is to prevent it. Using ethnography, participant observation and extensive interviews with all the main players, this controversial book charts the emergence
of the bouncer as one of the most graphic symbols in the iconography of post-industrial Britain. [Edit review] [Delete review]
