Davis, who may well be our best synthesist, reaches across disciplines to deliver a powerful main thesis: Los Angeles has, stupidly and defiantly, placed itself in the crosshairs of disasters--natural and manmade; its political institutions have cavalierly dared the poor to protest their treatment, and its builders, developers and growth junkies have built a city that sits squarely across fault lines, killer bee invasion routes, mountain lion ranges, and tornado corridors, to name a few. This is not to imply that the synthesist will want to call up only these writings; obviously that could be foolishly parochial. The "liberal Catholic" is, in the best instances, the twentieth-century Catholic synthesist. |
