Produktbeschreibung

Sociology, Work and Organisation deftly combines discussion of the theories and methods of sociology with consideration of an outstanding range of substantive issues relevant to contemporary work contexts and environments. The new edition boasts stronger coverage of historical and contemporary changes to, and patterns of, work organisation; a sharper focus on inequality; and a clearer narrative line culminating in a new final chapter. With its wealth of pedagogic features, crystal-clear prose and intellectual rigour, this brilliant textbook is ideally suited for teaching and study.
