Description for Processual Sociology
Hardcover. Num Pages: 336 pages. BIC Classification: JHB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 251 x 160 x 23. Weight in Grams: 568.
For the past twenty years, noted sociologist Andrew Abbott has been developing what he calls a processual ontology for social life. In this view, the social world is constantly changing—making, remaking, and unmaking itself, instant by instant.
