Key Ideas in Sociology
"The new edition is very nice indeed. I like the timeline, not only for the usual dates of theorists' births and deaths, but even more for the list of historical events, which are well chosen and will help students get a sense of historical context for the ideas themselves. Also, the expanded material at the end on global society is great. . . .and the list of questions will prove helpful too. I think this is the best introduction to social theories currently on the market!"(Donald A. Nielsen 2004-02-26)
