Synopsis

In Images of Social Stratification, Coxon and Davies investigate how people perceive and evaluate occupations. They challenge the validity of existing occupational hierarchies and propose a fundamentally new approach to the problem. This highly readable and non-technical book makes an important contribution to sociological debates about stratification, status and class and for areas as diverse as job evaluation, personnel management and careers guidance.
