This comprehensive examination of classical sociological theory introduces readers to the life, times, and ideas of the figures who have had the greatest influence on the development of the field. Readers will enjoy the background information on each theorist covered in the book, including such interesting highlights as Comte's days in military school, the death of Durkheim's son in World War I, Spencer's inability to commit to marriage, and Hegel's illegitimate son. Taking a critical and reflexive approach, Sociologcal Theory also discusses how classical theory affects sociology today.

This text introduces students to the lives, times, and ideas of twelve people who have had the greatest influence on the development of sociology. Each theorist is discussed in separate chapters, which are organized to demonstrate how social theory is the product of individuals responding to the issues and concerns of their times. The theorists are examined in light of their personal circumstances and the social and intellectual climate in which they lived; their ideas about society and their methodologies, and the significance of their work as perceived by subsequent generations.
Every chapter in this new edition has been updated to incorporate new scholarship, especially those on Durkheim and Marx. Also, the Web Resources Appendix has been thoroughly updated.
