Abstract: What is passionate sociology? Does sociology merit passion? Too often sociology is taught as a detached system of thought and practice. Passion is regarded as something to be avoided or treated with suspicion. Now at last we have a book that frankly argues for passion as being necessary for sociology. The text is not simply about passionate sociology, it demonstrates passionate sociology.
