(1990) Max Weber's construction of social theory, Basingstoke, Palgrave Macmillan.
The first four chapters examined the deeper historical roots of Weber's world-view. This chapter seeks to show how that worldview engaged with the issues of his own time when the demand arose to solve problems defined as 'social" and there was a general requirement for social facts. I shall advance the view that Weber's creative use of his own cultural heritage made him particularly fitted and ready to take up those issues.
