5.0 out of 5 stars
Best available discussion of the works of social theory.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Marx, Durkheim, Weber: Formations of Modern Social Thought (Paperback)
This is an outstanding book! It is the clearest, most explicit exposition of the central works of Marx, Durkheim and Weber available. Its theoretical discussions surpasses all secondary literature I know of including the treatments of Giddens, Aron, Nisbet, Zeitlin, Ritzer and Turner. Its strongest sections include discussions of the materialist theory of history, alienation, theory of suicide, rationalization and the Protestant ethic. In addition, the book contains a concept glossary describing in the clearest way possible terms such as ideology, anomie, means of production, division of labour etc. The book is superb for undergraduates and graduates in political and social theory

I'm a Sociology major who got this book at the recommendation of one of my teachers. It is a very helpful book though it would be nice if it included Parsons/Structural Functionalism as well.
