Sociological Theory in the Contemporary Era: Text and Readings features well-edited original writings from sociologyÆs core contemporary theorists witháintroductory text that provides aáhistorical and theoretical framework for understanding these works. Authors Scott Appelrouth and Laura Desfor Edles use this unique text/reader approach to introduce students to sociological theory in a lively and engaging fashion.áKey Features:Enables students to compare and contrast core concepts and ideas: This book provides not just a biographical and theoretical summary of each theorist/reading, but an overarching theoretical framework with which to understand, compare, and contrast these selections. The authors rely on original texts to derive new meaning and excitement of sociological theory. áStresses contemporary applications and examples: In addition to chapters on well-known figures, there is also an in-depth discussion of lesser known voices. The social and intellectual milieu in which the selections were written is discussed, as well as their contemporary relevance. Thus, the book connects these seemingly disparate works not only theoretically but also via concrete applications to todayÆs world.Provides a variety of visuals and pedagogical devices: Charts, figures, photographs, and discussion questions help summarize key concepts, illuminate complex ideas, and provoke student interest. No other theory text combines such ôstudent-friendlyö explanation and analysis with original theoretical works.á áIntended Audience:This is an excellent text for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying sociological theory in courses such as Contemporary Sociological Theory, Classical and Contemporary Sociological Theory, and Sociological Theory.
