A Sociology of the Absurd
This work provides a crystallization and particularization of a school of sociological thinking variously called "creative sociology," "existential sociology," "phenomenological sociology," "conflict theory," and "dramaturgical analysis." The result is a methodological synthesis of the "dual" visions of Erving Goffman and Harold Garfinkel. This book equips the reader with a framework for providing adequate descriptions of those face-to-face encounters that make up everyday life. This edition includes essays not found in the first edition, as well as a new introduction that locates it in the spectrum of contemporary theorizing.
Seven Deadly Sins
About the Book: The essence of The Seven Deadly Sins (Envy, Gluttony, Greed, Lust, Pride, Sloth and Wrath) are captured in this anthology of flash fiction (fiction of extreme brevity) stories!

Some stories reveal the entrapment in a single scene, others exposed the characters’ fall from grace over a longer period of time. Over all these short stories accomplish their mission and show off the seven deadly sins in a style that is easy to read and hard not to enjoy.

Postmodernism & a Sociology...(c)
In the fifth volume in the Studies in American Sociology Series, Stanford M. Lyman offers commentaries on and critiques of postmodernism, poststructuralism, and deconstruction, posing questions concerning theoretical and epistemological problems arising from what appears to be a "nouvelle vague." Postmodernism, poststructuralism, and deconstructionism are interrelated aspects of the newest theoretical development in sociology and the social sciences. This new wave of thought challenges virtually all paradigms currently in use. In this, his fifth volume in the Studies in American Sociology Series, Stanford M. Lyman offers commentaries on and critiques of this new perspective, posing questions...
