Andrew Smith & Matt Dawson 
Stretching the Sociological Imagination 
Essays in Honour of John Eldridge

This edited collection calls for renewed attention to the concept of the sociological imagination, allowing social scientists to link private issues to public troubles. Inspired by the eminent Glasgow-based sociologist, John Eldridge, it re-engages with the concept and shows how it can be applied to analyzing society today.
