Scott Appelrouth (PhD, New York University, 2000) is Professor of Sociology at California State University, Northridge. His interests include sociological theory, cultural sociology, and social movements. He has taught classical and contemporary theory at both the graduate and undergraduate levels, and has published several articles in research- and teaching-oriented journals on social movements, theory, and the controversies over jazz during the 1920s and rap during the 1980s. His current research focuses on political discourse in American party platforms.
“The format of this text is exceptional, and on that the discipline sorely needs. The authors present thorough biographical and historical backgrounds relevant to each theorist and her/his theories. I believe this is essential to learning and understanding theory...the authors use examples that will aid students in shaping their ability to see theory in their lives.”
Author: Chris Ponticelli Published On: 2008-02-01“I am thrilled by the hybrid approach. I think the authors’ approach is right on – they are right: we do need a reader which has solid primary source material but is embedded in historical and theoretical discussion and explication. I think the text/reader combination is highly attractive – especially for professors teaching at big public institutions I think this approach will be happily received and widely appreciated.”
Author: Phil Zuckerman Published On: 2008-02-01“I am very impressed by the coverage in this reader. I think the selections are excellent for both the classical and contemporary time periods.”
Author: James P. Marshall Published On: 2008-02-01“...the readers will be quite appealing to both students and instructors – much better than what is currently available.”
