This facsimile set of eight important texts, selected by the editor, presents early contributions to the development of the sociology of education from the 1920s through to the 1950s--the period in which it emerged as an organized and specialized sub-field of sociology, mainly in the USA.
Comprehensive and fascinating, the extensive new introduction to this set places these works firmly in the context of current scholarship, while the nature of the facsimile provides a real sense of immediacy and authenticity for both students and scholars alike.
