This book explores how structures of social inequality are linked to the social connections that people hold. The authors focus upon occupational inequalities where they see, for example, that the typical friendship patterns of people from one occupation are often very different to those of people from another. Social Inequalities and Occupational Stratification leverages empirical data about differences in social connections to chart structures of social distance and social inequality. Several of its chapters provide coverage of the long-standing Cambridge Social Interaction and Stratification scale (CAMSIS) project and its approach to analysing social interaction patterns in terms of a single dimension related to social inequality.

Emerging from the Rubble' charts the story of four resurrected people from different centuries being sent as a team to encourage hope and love in a post-apocalyptic community. All infrastructure is gone and the surviving humans are starting again, almost from scratch. Navigating relationships with tyrannical patriarchs, abused women, downtrodden men and perceived enemies, these four have much to teach and yet so much to learn. This book aims to excite questions and conversation about a possible future for humankind based on a particular view of Christian eschatology and the biblical concept that God loves everyone.
