The dean of formal sociology

Georg Simmel is an influential German social theorist. He was especially respected within the 'Chicago School' that dominated American sociology during the first half of twentieth century. Often misunderstood, over time his contributions have become more widely recognized. This specific work strongly influenced Lewis Coser in his The Functions of Social Conflict. If you are interested in social theory, this title will well reward your investment of time.
