"The best of its kind on the market"

Steve Fuller, Times Higher Education

"Alex Callincos has written one of the best historical introductions to sociological theory. His book also does a nice job of connecting sociological theory to broader intellectual trends and movements. This new edition sustains the quality and improves the coverage."

Craig Calhoun, New York University

"The second edition of Alex Callincos' Social Theory reads in the same beautifully clear, reliable and accessible way as the first edition. The new material adds a further dimension to this splendid book, bringing it fully up to date with debates in which Callinicos has himself played a part."

William Outhwaite, University of Sussex

Alex Callinicos is Professor of European Studies at Kings College, London.
