David Haney

The Americanization of Social Science: Intellectuals and Public Responsibility in the Postwar United States

An explanation for sociology's isolation from American society, this book introduces readers to such luminaries as Talcott Parsons, C Wright Mills, David Riesman, and others. It illustrates how their struggle to define a discipline reflected the discipline's own development in this country, and their claims for sociology's role about the US.
