Book summary:

Jean-Claude Chamboredon (1938-2020) is a leading figure in sociology, known for having written The profession of sociologist with Bourdieu and Passeron. A great reader, he was convinced of the unity of the social sciences and put this conviction into practice every day. While much of his work remains to be discovered, this collective work, faithful to his preoccupations, offers a remarkable introduction to his work.
