Moviehippies are often surprisingly well...

As Wilson admits, the styles are not empirically defined, and are more the result of the judicious impressions of his workers in the field. Indeed, the book falters most noticeably when Wilson attempts to use selected tables of arrest statistics to bolster his argument on the styles. The statistics do tend to confirm that the styles exist, but they also lead him into tiresome digressions to explain anomalies in certain of the tables...
