Handbook of neurosociology

David D. Franks, Jonathan H. Turner (eds)

Springer - Berlin

2013

Until recently, a handbook on neurosociology would have been viewed with skepticism by sociologists, who have long been protective of their disciplinary domain against perceived encroachment by biology. But a number of developments in the last decade or so have made sociologists more receptive to biological factors in sociology and social psychology.

Theoretical principles of sociology III

Jonathan H. Turner

Springer - Berlin

2012

The meso-level realm of social reality is structured by corporate and categoric units, along with their respective cultures. Unlike the macro and micro realms of social reality, the meso-level does not reveal its own unique forces.

Handbook of sociological theory

Jonathan H. Turner (ed)

Springer - Berlin

2001

From this perspective, we should see a weeding out of theories to a small number, but this is not likely to occur because each of the many theoretical perspectives has a resource base of adherents.
