Reviews

Review of the first publication: “Brittan has produced a conceptually stimulating, useful discussion of important strains in contemporary social theory. He is particularly careful in acknowledging the epistemological liabilities of microsociology, and he demonstrates an impressive command of the literature in both sociological theory and social philosophy.” — C. Ronald Huff, Purdue University Review of the first publication: “Brittan has produced a conceptually stimulating, useful discussion of important strains in contemporary social theory. He is particularly careful in acknowledging the epistemological liabilities of microsociology, and he demonstrates an impressive command of the literature in both sociological theory and social philosophy.” — C.
