James Vernon is professor of history at UC Berkeley. He is author or editor of several books including, most recently, Hunger: A Modern History and The Peculiarities of Liberal Modernity in Imperial Britain (UCP/GAIA, 2011), and is coeditor of the Berkeley Series in British Studies.
What does it mean to live in the modern world? How different is that world from those that preceded it, and when did we become modern?

評分作者在文中说,英国的社会学家喜欢针对具体社会问题,描述其特殊性、复杂性、差异性,不太注重社会的普遍规律。从这本书来看,似乎确实如此。不到200页的内容,说了很多细节性的东西,在理论解释方面相比就有所欠缺了。 但作者的思路还是清晰的。很多因素导致了一个陌生人社会...
