Abstract

W. E. B. Du Bois: Pioneer American Sociologist highlights the contributions of W. E. B. Du Bois on the field of sociology. Robert A.

This book provides a journey through the extensive sociological investigations of one of the key figures in the development of sociology in the United States and globally.
