Reviews

‘Mr. Dahrendorf is concerned with large and truly important questions, and he has an impressive command of the literature of his subject.’ Political Quarterly ‘Professor Dahrendorf has, with dazzling erudition, examined the principal attitudes to questions of class from Marx to Shelsky, Weber to Riesman and, mostly found them wanting.’ W. John Morgan, New Statesman ‘One of the most provocative contributions to social theory that has appeared in recent years. No sociologist concerned with ongoing social theory can afford to ignore this book.’ American Journal of Sociology.
