"Watts Miller provides a meticulous, conscientious, and unpretentious reading of Durkheim, rooted in deep acquaintance not only with his unpublished lectures but also with the writing of his contemporaries...The strength of Watts Miller's book is that it harks back to a Durkheim of complexity and rich ambiguity."  ·  Choice, "Watts Miller provides a meticulous, conscientious, and unpretentious reading of Durkheim, rooted in deep acquaintance not only with his unpublished lectures but also with the writing of his contemporaries...The strength of Watts Miller's book is that it harks back to a Durkheim of complexity and rich ambiguity." · Choice "...a brilliant piece of scholarship. It is exhaustive and extensively documented.

Synopsis
The book is a thorough and unpretentious reading of Durkheim The book undertakes detailed, up-to-date investigations of Durkheim's work in an effort to restore its freshness and reveal it as originally created Reconstructs Durkheim's concern with a modern world in crisis and his hope in social and moral reform Examines Durkheim's initial problematic search for solidarity, Durkheim, in his very role as a 'founding father' of a new social science, sociology, has become like a Figure in an old religious painting, enshrouded in myth and encrusted in layers of thick, impenetrable varnish. This book undertakes detailed, up-to-date investigations of Durkheim's work in an effort to restore its freshness and reveal it as originally created. These investigations explore his particular ideas, within an overall narrative of his initial problematic search for solidarity, how it became a quest for the sacred and how, at the end of his life, he embarked on a project for a new great work on ethics. A theme running through this is his concern with a modern world in crisis and his hope in social and moral reform. Accordingly, the book concludes with a set of essays on modern times and on a crisis that Durkheim thought would pass but which now seems here to stay., Durkheim, in his very role as a 'founding father' of a new social science, sociology, has become like a Figure in an old religious painting, enshrouded in myth and encrusted in layers of thick, impenetrable varnish.
