| Abstract |
"Social scientists do research, teach and mentor young scholars, and discuss theories and findings. Though there isn't complete agreement on how these activities should be conducted, clear public attention has been paid to these activities. Less attention has been paid to activities how researchers repeatedly generate new topics, best practices in publishing one's body of work, and how to make the most out of the publication review process. In Practicing Sociology, David Stark has assembled a team of skilled sociologists including Neil Fligstein, Wendy Espeland, Michele Lamont, Lucy Suchman, Paul DiMaggio, Peter Bearman, Shamus Khan, Marion Fourcade, John Levi Martin, and more, to provide their advice for new professionals."-- Provided by publisher. |
