About this product

Product Information

Anthony Giddens has been in the forefront of developments in social theory for the past decade. In The Constitution of Society he outlines the distinctive position he has evolved during that period and offers a full statement of a major new perspective in social thought, a synthesis and elaboration of ideas touched on in previous works but described here for the first time in an integrated and comprehensive form. A particular feature is Giddenss concern to connect abstract problems of theory to an interpretation of the nature of empirical method in the social sciences. In presenting his own ideas, Giddens mounts a critical attack on some of the more orthodox sociological views. The Constitution of Society is an invaluable reference book for all those concerned with the basic issues in contemporary social theory.

'It is likely that this book will be regarded as the most importantpiece of grand sociological theory in English of the past decade.' Mark Poster, University of California 'This book will take its place alongside such major statementsof sociological theory as those of Parsons and Habermas. Anyoneinterested in the state of the social sciences today, the characterof social theory or the relevance of philosophy to social theorywill now find it essential to grapple with Giddens's bold andincisive book.' Richard Bernstein, Haverford College,USA 'Anthony Giddens's new book is the fullest presentation yet ofhis theoretical views ... it has the lean, sparse, utterly serious,craftsmanlike qualities we have learned to expect from its authorand which make it a real pleasure to read.'

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
