More-than-Human Sociology is a call for a bolder, more creative sociology. Olli Pyyhtinen argues that to make sociology responsive to life in the 21st century we need a new sociological imagination, one that addresses connectivity, understands the world in which we live as both a human and non-human world, and is sensitive to the multiple scales on which things exist. A fresh and innovative take on the promise of sociology, this book will appeal to scholars and students both within sociology and the social sciences more broadly.
Olli Pyyhtinen is Professor of Sociology at the University of Tampere, Finland. He is the author of Simmel and 'the Social' (Palgrave Macmillan, 2010), The Gift and its Paradoxes (2014), and Disruptive Tourism and its Untidy Guests: Alternative Ontologies for Future Hospitalities (Palgrave Macmillan, 2014, with Veijola et al).
