Abstract:
A host of concepts linked to Goffman's name such as 'presentation of self', 'total institutions', 'stigma', 'impression management' and 'passing' are now staples in academic discourses. This book traces the emergence of Goffman as a sociological virtuoso, and offers a guide to his sociology and to the criticisms and debates it has stimulated
