ReviewsI love the inclusion of original writings, the sophistication of the book; the visual elements, and the structure., "Of all the books I reviewed, it does the best job of explaining to students what the readings are trying to say while also giving them exposure to the original texts. The primary texts we use in teaching classical sociology tend to be dense, archaic, and occasionally arcane, so having solid prefatory material that can guide them is a boon for me and them." --J.
