Synopsis :

Sixteen distinguished sociologists reflect on broad developments in their areas of interest over the past two or three decades -- the questions that have been asked, the data and methods used, the knowledge generated, and possible future developments in such fields as the sociology of science, racial and ethnic relations, and biosociology. S N Eisenstadt reviews the various theoretical schools, and other contributors discuss broad issues such as: why is sociological knowledge not more cumulative?

`In many ways this work does for the cohort that entered the discipline in those decades (60s and 70s) what Merton′s Sociology Today did for the cohorts of the 1940s and 1950s, and will, I believe, be seen to have comparable merit.′ -- Contemporary Sociology, Vol 12 No 1, January 1983
