Book Overview
This new edition of Allan G. Johnson's one-volume sociology dictionary includes 75 new entries, as well as an expanded biographical section, extensive revisions and updates, and a more thorough cross-referencing. Written by a sociologist who is also an accomplished writer and teacher, it is aimed primarily at students, but will also be of use to professionals looking for an introduction to core concepts outside their area of expertise. Its combination of clear prose, engaging examples, a single author's voice, and its minimal assumptions about the average reader's prior knowledge of sociology and its related fields, makes this a unique and valuable reference work.

Very valuable, worth the price in every Sociology class
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I found this dictionary very very valuable.I passed it around my Sociological Theory class so everyone could read its definitions and section on major theorists, and we all found it a wonderfull resource that provides solid definitons, as well as concise reviews on every theorist I have ever heard of. I wish I would have had this when I started my major.
