Giddens is the monarch of the introductory-text glen, and this handsomely updated seventh edition is a worthy successorTimer Higher Education Selected endorsements for previous editions: With this new edition of Sociology, Anthony Giddens has done the seemingly impossible. He has lifted the best introductory text in sociology in the world to yet a further level of excellence. It is a great achievement. Ulrich Beck, The London School of Economics There's no one on the planet with such a refined grasp of the practical and political significance of sociology as Anthony Giddens. This new edition of his best-selling textbook is his best yet. Anthony Elliott, University of Kent at Canterbury
