Synopsis:

Introducing the student to the work of a great sociologist, this book opens with a comprehensive biographical essay on Weber's life and work and includes his essays on science and politics, power, religion, and social structures.

Review: "Weber is essential to an understanding of sociological theory, and this is the quintessential Weber--a gold mine of insights into the workings of society."--Leslie Wasson, University of South Florida "Still the best compilation of texts by Weber."--Peter Jelavich, University of Texas, Austin "Wonderful....A classic for teaching modern EUuropean intellectual and cultural history."--Marjorie Beale, University of California "An excellent collection of papers from Max Weber. This is must reading for students of sociology."--Sronja Szelenyi, Stanford University "Still the single best book by and about Max Weber."--Terry Boswell, Emory University "The writings selected are representative of a wide range of the author's exceedingly verstaile and comprehensive studies."--Talcott Parsons, Annals of the American Academy of Political Science "A good and accessible compilation of Weber's major themes."--Laurel Kearns, Agnes Scott College "A good, solid anthology; wide-ranging in its contents and should be standard in many sociology courses."--Gregory O'Dea, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga "Superb collection of key texts!"--Szonja Szelenyi, Stanford University
