In this short and accessible introductory text, Gianfrano Poggi

unpretentious, intellectually sophisticated, but still highly
readable. As such, this highly perceptive book is bound to become
an indispensable guide to Webers key ideas, suitable for use by
anyone requiring a concise and yet scholarly introduction to Webers
work, whether at undergraduate or postgraduate level.
