Recenzii

'Keat and Urry present a battery of cogent and well-organized arguments about the philosophical assumptions informing various styles of sociological theorising' - Sociological Review
'It demonstrates with considerable clarity and scholarship just why sociology should offend people whose work requires the maintenance of authority, whether the authority is that of office or or positivist science.' - The Times Higher Education Supplement
'They are sharp about the snags of existing approaches and theories and their book ... is an undoubted aid to interdisciplinary teaching.' - Philosophical Books
