Originally published in 1972, this book aimed to provide the
student with a basic understanding of the main theories of social
stratification and to acquaint them with current methods of
research, with the results from modern research (with emphasis on
British research), and with current issues in this field. The first
two chapters are concerned with theory and are followed by chapters
on slavery and the caste system. These are intended to illustrate
concepts and theory and to offer the student a comparative
perspective in which to view stratification in modern society -
which is dealt with in a final lengthy chapter. The book has been
written primarily for first-year university students, but also with
sixth-formers and students in colleges of further education in
mind.
