Contemporary Giddens Social Theory in a Globalizing Age

Anthony Giddens is one of the world's best known sociologists. Since becoming director of the London School of Economics and Political Science in 1997, he has also played a leading public role, not least as "Blair's guru" and author ofThe Third Way. This book opens up for academic and general readers who Giddens is, what he has done in academic life over more than 40 years, and how his work over the last decade on modernity, globalization, and transformation of personal life underpins his current public and political activities.Bryant, Christopher G.
