Old World Traits Transplanted 0-415-27974-7: £105.00 Robert E. Park and Herbert A. Miller In this remarkable book, Park and Miller combine sociological theory and empirical date (particularly interviews and letters of immigrants) to analyse ways of life and problems faced by immigrants into the United States at the beginning of the twentieth century. The authors examine how cultural differences of these social groups can be integrated or Americanised into a culturally harmonious society, and the problems that may arise if this cannot take place. The Taxi-Dance Hall: A Sociological Study on Commercialized Recreation and City Life 0-415-27975-5: £105.00 Paul G. Cressey The taxi-dance hall was based on the idea that male clients would pay for each dance they had with the young girls employed by the dance hall - much as a passenger pays for a taxi-ride. Cressey takes these places of impersonal exchange as deeply symptomatic of the social problems of the rapidly growing industrial cities of the early twentieth century, revealing the impersonality of the city, the absence of restraints, the loneliness, individual maladjustment and distraction characteristic of many in the urban environment. This book is a seminal text in the socially reformist Chicago School of Sociology. The Mind and Society (4 volumes) Part One: 0-415-27976-3: £105.00 Part Two: 0-415-27977-1: £105.00 Part Three: 0-415-27978-X: £105.00 Part Four: 0-415-27979-8: £105.00 Vilfredo Pareto This monumental four volume book occupies a position of great prominence in the development of sociology. Vilfredo Pareto has been regarded as one of the four key figures in the making of modern sociology along with Alfred Marshall, Emile Durkheim and Max Weber. Pareto's main contribution to this field was the idea that non-logical values and sentiments provide the ultimate ends of otherwise rational means-ends chains of reasoning. This view sees the individual as integrated with others in relation to a common value system rather than acting alone, in other words, as existing in society. The Elements of Folk Psychology 0-415-27980-1: £105.00 Wilhelm Wundt In this book Wilhelm Wundt shifts the emphasis of the study of cultures from intellectual to emotional and intuitive factors. A person's reaction to nature is conceived as an intuitive response, the direct metaphorical grasp of natural events. Wundt's idea is that there is an unconscious functional relationship between individuals in a group so close that it is not possible to separate the elements from the psychological whole. He sees the history of culture as being made up of successive cultural eras or stages, primitive man, totemism, gods and heroes and finally humanity. The emerging sense of individuality is inextricably bound up in this. Culture and Progress 0-415-27981-X: £105-00 Wilson D. Wallis Wilson Wallis' contribution to the early sociology of culture recommends itself because of the thoroughness with which it approaches vital questions that have preoccupied the sociology of culture at various times. The first question concerns the idea of development or progress. Since the Enlightenment this has been at the heart of social thinking. The second question is whether culture should be at the centre of sociological investigation, or is it subordinate to social structure. Wallis makes a strong case for putting culture at the centre of sociological theory and analysis which is vital to an understanding of these classic texts. The study of sociology regularly involves a re-reading of the classics of the discipline, and a re-evaluation of the founding works, yet very few of these works are still in print. This collection will remedy this situation.The study of sociology regularly involves a re-reading of the classics of the discipline, and this collection makes available some of the most important early texts for re-evaluation.
