  Austin, Texas, is often depicted as one of the past half century's great urban success stories - a place that has grown enormously through creative class strategies emphasizing tolerance and environmental consciousness. Eliot Tretter reinterprets this familiar story by exploring the racial and environmental underpinnings of the postindustrial knowledge economy.
