Handbook of sociology. 2nd print. Editor Neil J. SMELSER. Newbury: Sage, 1988, 824 s. ISBN 0-8039-2665-0.
The publication of the Handbook of Sociology heralded a new age of sociological thought and practice. This volume synthesizes the field. It provides an original and comprehensive look at this vital discipline which has not had a new Handbook in 25 years - years in which sociology as a field of study and practice has undergone significant change. Eminent scholars representing both micro and macro perspectives combine their expertise to address the diversity, growth and new developments which characterize the field of sociology today. Smelser, one of the leading sociologists of our time, introduces the Handbook with a reflective and incisive essay on the historical developments within the field, the status of sociology as a discipline and the future of the profession. The first set of essays covers theoretical and methodological issues on such topics as: scientific sociology, norms, values and sanctions, social structure, the use of data, and causal inference. The second set of essays discusses bases of inequality in society by examining such issues as: inequality and labour processes, race and ethnicity, age, and gender and sex roles. The third segment of this volume explores major institutional and organizational settings such as: jobs and work, environments and organizations, politics, family, education, religion, the sociology of science, medical sociology, and mass media. The volume concludes with a section on social process and change such as: spatial processes, deviance and social control, social movements and collective behaviour, and development and the world economy. With contributions by many of the leading social thinkers of our time, this authoritative and comprehensive Handbook will be a necessary tool for all sociologists - advanced students and scholars alike. Offering incomparable depth and breadth, the Handbook of Sociology effectively synthesizes the complex and controverisal issues which surround the discipline of sociology. This single landmark volume transcends the field's increasingly specialized boundaries, providing scholars in sociology and related disciplines with exciting new possibilities for teaching and research.
