Sociology, Work and Organisation
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-94181-6 (ISBN)
Intellectual and accessible, it is unrivalled in the breadth of its coverage and its authoritative overview of both traditional and emergent themes in the sociological study of work and organisation. The direction and implications of trends in technological change are fully considered and the book recognises the extent to which these trends are intimately related to changing patterns of inequality in modern societies and to the changing experiences of individuals and families. Key features of the text are:
clear structure;
‘key issue’ guides and summaries with each chapter;
identification of key concepts throughout the book;
unrivalled glossary and concept guide;
rich illustrative snapshots or ‘mini cases’ throughout the book.
This text engages with cutting-edge debates and makes conceptual innovations without any sacrifice to clarity or accessibility of style. It will appeal to a wide audience, including undergraduates, postgraduates and academics working or studying in the area of work and the organisation of work, as well as practitioners working in the area of human resources and management generally.
Tony Watson is Emeritus Professor of Sociology, Work and Organisation in the Nottingham University Business School, University of Nottingham.
