"An exciting book.... Provides readers with a rare view of the largely 'invisible' drug trade involving wealthy student clientele.... We need more books like this to provide a more rounded view of the drug problem and the selective enforcement that has left—and continues to leave— poor racial and ethnic minorities bearing the brunt of the incarceration binge related to the 'war on drugs.' This book should be read widely in criminology and related social science disciplines by both students and scholars of racial/ethnic inequities in the administration of criminal justice, as well as those who blindly and naively rely on crime statistics."—Shaun L. Gabbidon, Crime, Media, Culture

"Dorm Room Dealers is a valuable contribution to the ethnography of drug use and drug selling and is an interesting read, too."—Phillip S. Smith, Drug War Chronicle

"Outstanding…. The authors uncover a world of drug dealing far removed from violent street-corner slinging and as entwined in the college experience as all-nighters and keg parties. Providing unparalleled insight into the war on drugs and an all-but-ignored deviant world, this book is as entertaining to read as it is educational."—Peter Moskos, John Jay College of Criminal Justice

"An excellent study that finally puts the race/class-biased War on Drugs into perspective."—William J. Chambliss, George Washington University

"Compellingly demonstrates that college drug dealers, who are mostly white and middle-class, are not subject to the same constraints as typical, street-level dealers."—Heith Copes, University of Alabama at Birmingham
