Phenomenology of the Social World cover

In this book, his major work, Alfred Schutz attempts to provide a sound philosophical basis for the sociological theories of Max Weber. Using a Husserlian phenomenology, Schutz provides a complete and original analysis of human action and its "intended meaning.

This is one of the most important works ever written in the area of theoretical foundations of the social sciences." —New Scholasticism

"To be invited to review [Schutz's] key work is intimidating for the reviewer, since this is one of the rare classics in the philosophy of the social sciences." —Sociological Review
