      abstract = {"This book is a concise intellectual biography of Harold  Garfinkel, a key figure in 20th-century social science.  Garfinkel is practically synonymous with ethnomethodology,  an approach that since the 1960s has led to major analytic  and methodological developments in sociology and other  disciplines. This introduction to Garfinkel explores how he  developed ethnomethodology under the influence of Talcott  Parsons and Alfred Schutz, situates it within sociology  generally, and demonstrates its important influence on  recent developments in the discipline, particularly the  sociology of science and technology, gender studies,  organization studies, and the computer sciences. The book  will be of wide interest in the social sciences and a  useful supplement to courses on intellectual history and  methodology." -- Publisher's description.},
