Understanding Weber
Autor Sam Whimsteren Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 mar 2007
- locates the central issues in Weber's writings and relates them to the golden era of social and cultural sciences
- argues that Weber remains the major exponent of the classical tradition still relevant today
- offers a new interpretation of the dynamic of Weber’s career as historian, social-economist, methodologist and sociologist.
This is an indispensable guide to Weber's writings and will be an invaluable companion to The Essential Weber (2004). The book closely tracks the development of Weber’s thinking, an exploration that will make it an obligatory choice for undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as researchers in the fields of sociological theory, economic sociology and cultural studies.

Recenzii
"In creating, single-handedly, a new genre for the appreciation of Weber - simultaneously didactic, contextual and (mostly) comprehensive - Sam Whimster's achievement is considerable...Whimster's book is indispensable."
-- Peter Baehr, Lingnan University, Canadian Journal of Sociology, Vol. 33, No.3, 2008
"Understanding Weber by Sam Whimster brings together more than a decade of cutting-edge work in Weber scholarship since the late 1990s...All of the most important developments in Weber research over the last ten to fifteen years are surveyed, collated, and interpreted in this extremely informative and fluently written volume."
