About the Author
Donileen R. Loseke is professor of sociology at the University of South Florida.
This is a well-conceived, sophisticated, and intellectually
stimulating book. I truly enjoyed reading it.The scholarship is
sound and the ideas/arguments are communicated clearly and
effectively. I believe this book will be useful for scholars in a
variety of fields who are interested in developing their
understanding of narrative theory and method, but also scholars who
are focused on a wide variety of substantive areas who are
interested in developing a better understanding of the storied,
cognitive, and emotional dimensions of the main moral and political
issues (and contentions) in their area of expertise.

This book offers an accessible and thorough review of the
significance of stories and storytelling across the many facets of
social life, from identities and culture to social problems and
public policies. The book also serves as an excellent introduction
to sociological reasoning at its best. Professor Loseke’s lucid and
engaging writing combined with her vast expertise make this book an
instant classic and a must-read for both novices and specialists in
the field of narrative analysis and social sciences in general.
