About this Item
First edition, first printing, of a landmark text in sociology, introducing many concepts which are now a mainstay of the modern discipline. In a 1998 survey, the work was selected by the International Sociological Association as the third most important sociological book of the 20th century, behind only Weber's Economy and Society and Mills's Sociological Imagination. Concepts introduced in this work include reference groups, obliteration by incorporation, manifest and latent functions and dysfunctions, and self-fulfilling prophecies. Octavo.

Spine ends and extremities lightly sunned, dust jacket spine darkened and a little scuffed, chipped at extremities and slightly soiled; a good copy. Seller Inventory # 157889
