Reviews for Becoming Mead: The Social Process of Academic Knowledge
Becoming Mead is extremely interesting and empirically and historically rich. There are insights here that will have relevance for scholars interested in debates on canons, collaborative circles, and sociology of philosophy. I like the book a lot and learned much.
