Description

Get Classical Sociological Theory, Fourth Edition and Contemporary Sociological Theory, Fourth Edition in a combined set This combined set includes the newly revised fourth edition of two world-class introductions to sociological debates: Classical Sociological Theory and Contemporary Sociological Theory.

For a generation of students, these two anthologies have provided a definitive guide to the theoretical foundations of sociology and the continuing impact of early theorists, as well as a thorough introduction to current perspectives and approaches in sociology and social science. Classical Sociological Theories features readings by leading scholars like Marx, Durkheim, Weber, Mead, Simmel, Freud, Du Bois, Adorno, Marcuse, Parsons, and Merton, also including the most influential theories arising out of the Enlightenment era and the work of de Tocqueville.

Contemporary Sociological Theories offers in-depth yet accessible sources that examine micro-sociological analysis, symbolic interactionism, network theory, phenomenology, critical theory, structuralism, feminist theory, debates over modernity and postmodernity, and more. This set is the most accessible and complete overview of sociological theory available.

Both volumes: Feature a collection of readings carefully selected based on their theoretical sophistication and accessibilityPresent substantial primary source texts with detailed introductions, rather than brief excerpts and basic overviewsProvide historical and intellectual perspective to each selected reading in the bookInclude extensive references to further readings and resources Ideal for undergraduate courses in social and sociological theory as well as courses in wider social science programs such as human geography, anthropology, criminology, and urban studies, Classical Sociological Theory and Contemporary Sociological Theory, together offer a perfect combination for a thorough overview of sociological theory.

Each volume can be purchased on its own or in a set with the textbook.
