\"large<\/a>The latest book from the UT Libraries’ Newfound Press will be feted Thursday, February 5, at the City University of New York (CUNY) Graduate Center Program in Sociology.<\/p>\n

From Joseph Bensman: Essays on Modern Society<\/em><\/a> collects the essays of the renowned humanistic sociologist and includes a new, analytical introduction by the editors, Robert Jackall and Duffy Graham. <\/p>\n

Joseph Bensman (1922-1986) was Distinguished Professor of Sociology at CUNY and a founding member of the CUNY Graduate Center’s doctoral program in sociology. The editors of From Joseph Bensman<\/em> will be on hand at CUNY’s reception to deliver a brief remembrance of professor Bensman and to sign books.<\/p>\n

Bensman was an observer of modern institutions, professions, and culture. From Joseph Bensman: Essays on Modern Society<\/em> brings together some of his finest work, often done in collaboration with colleagues such as Arthur J. Vidich, Robert Lilienfeld, Bernard Rosenberg, and Israel Gerver.<\/p>\n

In the introduction to the collection, Jackall and Graham identify Bensman’s trademark habits of mind: an analytical stance, fundamentally objective and dispassionate; a vigilant awareness of the reach and vitality of bureaucracy; an ability to discern intellectual problems in superficially unremarkable phenomena; attention to empirical detail and suspicion of theoretical abstractions; and appreciation of irony and unintended consequences.<\/p>\n

Newfound Press<\/a>, a digital imprint of the University of Tennessee Libraries, publishes peer-reviewed books and multimedia works. Newfound Press titles can be read online and are available for print-on-demand through UT Press.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
