Description
Paperback cover has some fading. Pages are clean and the binding is secure.
This well-worn copy of “The Rules of Sociological Method” by Émile Durkheim bears the marks of a book that has been thoroughly studied and cherished. First published in 1895, this seminal work laid the foundations for the scientific study of society, establishing sociology as a distinct discipline separate from philosophy and psychology. Durkheim, often referred to as the “Father of Sociology,” introduced concepts such as social facts, collective consciousness, and the sociological method, which aimed to uncover the underlying laws governing social life.
This particular edition, translated by Sarah A. Solovay and John H. Mueller, with an introduction by George E. G. Catlin, offers English readers access to Durkheim’s groundbreaking ideas. Despite its well-worn appearance, the clean pages and secure binding suggest a book that has been carefully handled, perhaps by a student or scholar deeply engaged with Durkheim’s influential theories. For collectors and readers interested in the history of social sciences, this copy represents an opportunity to own a piece of intellectual heritage that shaped the way we understand and study human societies.
