| 概要 | This is the first volume in the new series Masters of Social Theory. It is a carefully balanced reappraisal, in which Jonathan Turner separates Spencer's scientific works from his famous 'survival of ...he fittest' defense of laissez faire. Turner writes 'I am not asserting that his sociology was not influenced by his ideology. I am only pointing to the fact that there are far fewer ideological tracks in his work than in Durkheim's, Weber's, and Marx's works...the unknowing rediscovery of Spencer over the last one hundred years represents an enormous waste of our intellectual energies'. This book gives a clear and concise analysis of Spencer's work, emphasizing his important contribution to social science theory. Each volume in the series will feature prominent sociological theorists of the 19th and 20th centuries; they aim to provide both scholarly analysis and to summarize the fundamental ideas associated with each respective figure. The volumes provide a short, scholarly reference work and individual texts for undergraduate and graduate students. `Indispensable for historians of social theory, upper division undergraduate level and beyond.' -- Choice, March 1986 `Turner...has provided a convincing case for the importance of Spencer in contemporary theory...and gives a useful overview of (his) methodology for comparative descriptive sociology.' -- Network, No 33, October 1985 This is the first volume in the new series Masters of Social Theory.
