Thinking Sociologically by Zygmunt Bauman

In this textbook, Bauman addresses the problem of thinking sociologically. Through an examination of the underlying assumptions and tacit expectations which structure people's view of the world, Bausman aims to elucidate key concepts in sociology, from individualism and community to privilege and deprivation.

Zygmunt Bauman (19 November 1925 - 9 January 2017) was a Polish sociologist and philosopher. He was driven out of Poland by a political purge in 1968 engineered by the Communist government of the Polish People's Republic and forced to give up his Polish citizenship to move to Israel. Three years after he moved to the United Kingdom. He resided in England from 1971 and became Professor of Sociology at the University of Leeds, later Emeritus. Bauman was one of the world's most eminent social theorists, writing on issues as diverse as modernity and the Holocaust, postmodern consumerism and liquid modernity.
