This text provides an analysis of influential theorists in sociology from 1830 to 1930, focusing primarily on Comte, Spencer, Marx, Weber, Simmel, Durkheim, Pareto and Mead. It examines the scholars and schools who influenced these theorists, and covers the origin of the ideas of each theorist, their basic works and contributions, and the legacy of the abstract models and principles that they contributed to sociological theory. This text is a complementary volume to Turner's book on contemporary theory, "The Structure of Sociological Theory" (6th Edition).
