Terry Williams and Trevor B. Milton, two prominent sociologists and ethnographers, spent years with New York con artists to uncover their secrets. The result is an unprecedented view into how con games operate, whether in back alleys and side streets or in police precincts and Wall Street boiler rooms. Whether it's selling bootleg goods, playing the numbers, squatting rent-free, scamming tourists with bogus stories, selling knockoffs on Canal Street, or crafting Ponzi schemes, con artists use verbal persuasion, physical misdirection, and sheer charm to convince others to do what they want. Williams and Milton examine this act of performance art and find meaning in its methods to exact bounty from unsuspecting tourists and ordinary New Yorkers alike. Through their sophisticated exploration of the personal experiences and influences that create a successful hustler, they build a portrait of unusual emotional and psychological depth. Their work also offers a new take on structure and opportunity, showing how the city's unique urban and social architecture lends itself to the perfect con. 410 0$aStudies in transgression. 606 $aCrime$zNew York (State)$zNew York 606 $aCriminals$zNew York (State)$zNew York 606 $aPolice$zNew York (State)$zNew York 615 0$aCrime 615 0$aCriminals 615 0$aPolice 676 $a364.16/3097471 686 $aZH 9400$2rvk 700 $aWilliams$b Terry M$g(Terry Moses),$f1948-$01701407 702 $aMilton$b Trevor$f1976- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817877903321 996 $aThe con men$94085122 997 $aUNINA
