Subject: A new dictionary of sociology


I'm pleased to let sociologists on the list know that Basil Blackwell
has just published a new book of mine, "The Blackwell Dictionary of
Sociology: A User's Guide to Sociological Language."  The dictionary is
distinctive not only in its combination of scholarship with a high level
of accessibility for the average reader, but in its inclusion of a
substantial number of biographical sketches of prominent women in
sociology (current leading sociology dictionaries typically mention few
if any women at all).  

The book is being published simultaneously in the U.S. and the U.K. and
is available in both hardbound ($49.95) and paperback ($16.95).

For examination copies (for courses with 12 or more students), you can
e-mail Blackwell directly at: 

(UK)   inspcopy-AT-BlackwellPublishers.co.uk

(US)   blkwell-AT-world.std.com

Your request should include the title of your course and its usual
enrollment.  If you have any difficulty, let me know.
