"...The Contemporary Goffman offers much insight and commentary on the world of Goffman, and will stimulate anybody to consider the breadth of analysis and application that this world offers. It also makes a vigorous case for viewing the oeuvre as truly original in sociology, and Goffman himself as one of its most creative, if not finest, writers." —Jim Cosgrave, Trent University, Canadian Journal of Sociology 35, 4"...this collection as a whole and especially by way of part 3 demonstrates what a number of the authors assert—that Goffman’s work remains as fresh now as it was in his own time."—American Journal of Sociology, volume 117, number 1 (1 July 2011), Douglas W. Maynard, University of Wisconsin, USA
