One of our more popular titles is Leon H. Warshay's Perspectives in Sociological Theory (2013).

The book has been referred to by early reviewers as "one of the most in depth analytical theory books in years" and a "valued resource of sociological theory."
Some of our most popular features include Frank Tridico's Law and Social Order (2016). Newly updated, the book examines the historical timeline of United States Supreme Court cases and their impact on the definition of and implementation of justice. Reviewers have called it "a unique study of American legal history, applying ideology into the frameworks of political and legal contexts" and "a discourse in the establishment of Constitutional rights."
