This short critical introduction to Pierre Bourdieu's thought is a model of clarity and insight. He emphasizes Bourdieu's contributions to theory and methodology while also dealing in detail with his substantive studies of education, social stratification and culture. Where Bourdieu's own writings are often complex, even ambiguous, Richard Jenkins is direct, concise and to the point.
