Synopsis
This volume is a Festschrift for Professor Herbert Blumer, one of the foremost sociologists of today, and the chief proponent of the symbolic interactionist approach. The editor, Tamotsu Shibutani, has collected articles written by Dr. Blumer's students, colleagues and friends. These discussions represent a wide diversity of views as they investigate Dr. Blumer's areas of specialization: theory and methodology, social psychology, collective behavior, and sociology and social policy. The authors of these readings wish to honor Dr. Blumer for his contributions to sociology and to society. He has been a pioneer in a still underdeveloped discipline who has stressed the importance in inductive, exploratory inquiries as he called for a closer examination of human life. The readings not only discuss Dr. Blumer's accomplishments, but also criticize and elaborate upon his findings. The result is a book of readings which provides a thorough analysis of Herbert Blumer's approach to sociology.

From the Inside Flap
"Blumer's collection of essays could be characterized as 'What everyone should know in words everybody can understand.' It is a lucid, straightforward statement of ideas that have been very important in the development of American sociology."--American Sociological Review "The best current source for the symbolic interactionist perspective and its methodological implications. . . . Today, when so many students and professionals are asking increasingly for relevant study, meaningful research, and a concern for the application of social science to social life, Blumer's book should become a best-seller."--Social Forces
About the Author
Herbert George Blumer earned his doctorate in 1928 at the University of Chicago and went on to teach there until 1951. He later became the founding chair of the Department of Sociology at the University of California, Berkeley. In 1983 the American Sociological Association honored him with its Career of Distinguished Scholarship Award, acknowledging the importance of his codification of the fundamental theoretical and methodological tenets of the sociological perspective that he called symbolic interactionism.
