This will be a major resource for anyone interested in the theoretical dimensions of social policy. The theorists whose work is described have almost invariably had an effect on the real world of policy and politics, and anyone concerned with social policy issues should be familiar with their ideas. The book′s encyclopedic scope is a major strength, as is the author′s ability to condense this material into an interesting and readable format. It makes a major contribution to the literature and should be widely consulted.

--JOURNAL OF SOCIOLOGY AND SOCIAL WELFARE


John Scott has provided us with an encyclopaedic tour through the foundations and development of social theory which cautions against the contemporary fragmentation of academic work and demonstrates the continued value of sociology′s heritage. The book will become a key resource for students and scholars alike.

--Barry Smart, Professor of Sociology, Portsmouth University
