Reviews for Self, Social Structure, and Beliefs
"The essays collected here are a fitting tribute precisely because they are intellectual, rich, diverse, thought-provoking, and unafraid of controversy." - Craig Calhoun, President, Social Science Research Council; "If the legacy of scholars is measured by the work of their students, Neil Smelser has done very well indeed." - Michele Lamont, coeditor of Rethinking Comparative Cultural Sociology"
