"Tom Wolfe has the great journalist's knack of finding large subjects in small places, but he can't resist reducing them to the scale of his own taste. In 'Radical Chic and Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers', the Leonard Bernsteins' 'party' for the Panther 21 last Jan. 14 and the troubles of California antipoverty offices play variations on a serious theme, the dynamics of confrontation between oppressed peoples and well-intentioned privilege.
