Forms of Power

"[This] excellent typology of forms of social power will be welcomed by all social theorists.... Feminist theorists in particular should find this book an important contribution to their thinking about how male domination is exercised even when immediate interactions between men and women appear harmonious."
-Iris M.Young

"An excellent study of the many meanings of power. The study is a strong start at filling a void in contemporary social theory...."
-Choice

"The theory of power that Wartenberg argues for in this book is carefully constructed, with perceptive analyses and fresh insights... Certainly the current debates will profit from the clarity of his criticisms and of his own constructive position.... a major systematic treatment that is ambitious in its scope and original in its results."
-David Hoy, University of California, Santa Cruz
