The most obvious change in this edition is in the overall structure if the book. The previous edition was divided into two parts- classical and contemporary sociological theory. In this edition there are three parts- classical sociological theory, the major schools of sociological theory, and the most recent developments in sociological theory discussed under the headings of integration and synthesis."
