Behavior in Public Places – Notes on the Social Organization of Gatherings (The Free Press, 1963/1966) by Erving Goffman is a study of human interaction and movement in public urban environment.

Professor Goffman has demonstrated, once again, that sociology’s presentation of self in academic life can be clear, concise, and to the point without running the risk of substituting mere pedestrian bits and pieces for genuine scholarship. The purpose of this book is to develop a framework capable of dealing with an almost neglected area of social reality, behavior in public and semipublic places. Goffman feels that the distinct features of face-to-face interaction, richness of information flow, and facilitation of feedback, have enough structuring significance to provide an analytical rationale for its separate treatment. It is to his credit that this ‘model’ takes advantage of already existing and well-defined terminology, while introducing only a few new and relatively unfamiliar concepts.
