Description

We make our way down the street and avoid crashing into others, take our place in the supermarket queue, take care in the way we talk about others in conversation, acknowledge the social status of people we meet, and enjoy leisurely pursuits in the company of friends and like-minded others. All these things are fundamental parts of human sociality that can be discovered and understood through 'sociologies of interaction'. This book provides an invaluable introduction to the theoretical foundations and practical applications of interactionist approaches to everyday life.
