"[This] collection of essays argues for Martineau's foundational
and hitherto unrecognized importance in the discipline of
sociology. Advancing the claim that Martineau must be taken
seriously in the sociology classroom, the editors...note smartly
that because so much her sociological writing is 'directly
accessible to neophyte readers...students may miss entirely the
sophisticated logic and structure of her theoretical views' (14)."
-- Victorian Studies
