Moreover, it is a tribute to the scope of Merton's work and the influence Merton has had on the work and life of sociologists around the world. This is reflected in each of the 12 chapters by internationally acclaimed scholars witnessing the range of fields Merton has contributed to as well as the personal impact he has had on sociologists. This approach is in itself a tribute to Merton: an analysis of knowledge production through a contextualized review of an author's life-work ? a quintessentially "Mertonian" enterprise. 606 $aSociology$zUnited States$xHistory 610 $aEthics, History, History of science, Modernity, Sociology, United States. 615 0$aSociology$xHistory. 676 $a301.092 701 $aElkana$b Yehuda$f1934-2012$045132 701 $aSzigeti$b Andra?s$01522004 701 $aLissauer$b Gyo?rgy$01522005 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781959203321 996 $aConcepts and the social order$93761508 997 $aUNINA
