G.H. Mead - A Reader

This book introduces social scientists to the ideas of George Herbert Mead (1863-1931) - one of the most original yet neglected thinkers of early twentieth-century social thought. Based on Mead''s published and unpublished writings, this collection is the first one-volume edition of his writings that critically assesses what counts as Mead''s writings and what aspects are central to his system of thought.
