Development of Social Theory

Originally published in 1924, Development of Social Theory was written to expand on an outline of the subject in order to turn it into a year’s course of graduate study.From Plato to the writers and teachers of the time, it presents the theorists themselves, giving a historic background, followed by their theory and its subsequent development.It was highly regarded, and widely used as a text for many years.Today it can be read in its historical context.
