Page 1 of 1
Albion W. Small
May 11, 1854 - March 24, 1926
Nationality: American
Category: Sociologist
Subcategory: American Sociologist

Modern sociology is virtually an attempt to take up the larger program of social analysis and interpretation which was implicit in Adam Smith's moral philosophy, but which was suppressed for a century by prevailing interest in the technique of the production of wealth.
