Turner seeks to answer this question through a brief, yet in-depth examination of twelve major sociological theories. Readers are given an opportunity to explore the foundational premise of each theory and key elements that make it distinctive. The book draws on biographical background, analysis of important works, historical influences, and other critical insights to help readers make the important connections between these monumental sociological theories and the social world in which we live. This concise resource is a perfect complement to any course that seeks to examine both classic and contemporary sociological theory. 606 $aSociology$xHistory 606 $aSociology$xPhilosophy 606 $aSociology 615 0$aSociology$xHistory. 615 0$aSociology$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aSociology. 676 $a301 700 $aTurner$b Jonathan H.$0127799 801 0$bCaToSAGE 801 1$bCaToSAGE 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910149559303321 996 $aTheoretical sociology$92499452 997 $aUNINA
