The Sociology of Belief (Routledge Revivals)

Exploring the interplay between knowledge and social thought, Keith Dixon critiques both traditional and contemporary sociology of knowledge, highlighting fallacies in reducing knowledge to mere ideology. The book delves into theories by Marx and Mannheim, alongside discussions on the sociology of science and religious belief. It culminates in a thorough conclusion that examines the foundations and limitations of the sociology of knowledge, making it a valuable resource for sociology students seeking a deeper understanding of these concepts.
