Description
An introduction and a sourcebook for all students and teachers of social theory
This reader brings together a generous selection of readings from the original texts of the three major classical sociological theorists: Karl Marx, Max Weber and Emile Durkheim. The readings, are long enough for students to gain a full understanding of the texts. Each reading is introduced by an editorial commentary which explains the importance of the piece within the context of the theorist's other work.
