The Rise of Professional Society by Professor Harold Perkin, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

The Rise of Professional Society lays out a stimulating and controversial framework for the study of British society, challenging accepted paradigms based on class analysis. Perkins argues that the non-capitalist "professional class" represents a new principle of social organization based on trained expertise and meritocracy, a "forgotten middle class" conveniently overlooked by classical social theorists. | The Rise of Professional Society by Professor Harold Perkin, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
