A fresh look at the life and work of one of the greatest social and political thinkers of the modern era, and the first book to focus on Weber from an American perspective."This book--part biography, part exegisis, part appreciation--is one of Diggins' best." "--Washington Post Book World"
"Few will not be enlightened by Mr. Diggins's challenging study."--Adam Wolfson, "Wall Street Journal"
"Beautifully written, fully documented, it conveys an idea of Weber as an insightful tormented social scientist who sees politics as a diabolical pact, tackles the problems of industrialized societies and anticipates the anguish of post-modernity."--Franco Ferrerotti, University of RomeA.
