Recenzii
"This
is
an
eminently
lucid,
readable,
and
comprehensive
survey
of
classical
sociological
theory.
Adams
and
Sydie
provide
thoughtful
summaries
and
assessments
of
the
works
of
dozens
of
social
thinkers….By
significantly
broadening
the
cannon
and
devoting
special
attention
to
call,
gender,
and
race,
they
bring
theory
up
to
date
even
as
they
take
seriously
the
rich
legacy
of
the
past.
I
have
never
read
a
more
exciting
introduction
to
the
theories
of
our
discipline."
