The Social Dynamics Of George H Mead Introd By Hm Kallen

This book introduces social scientists to the ideas of George Herbert Mead (1863-1931) - one of the most original yet neglected thinkers of early twentieth-century social thought. Based on Mead's published and unpublished writings, this collection is the first one-volume edition of his writings that critically assesses what counts as Mead's writings and what aspects are central to his system of thought.

This work analyzes George Herbert Mead's position in the study of human conduct. It covers Mead's ideas for developing the theoretical and methodological position of symbolic interactionism. It also explores social processes embodied in and formed through social action.
