Reviews

Loren R. Graham, Massachusetts Institute of Technology:
Smoother Pebbles reminds us of the great contribution to the field that Jonathan Cole has made and allows us to trace the evolution of his views over the years.

Stephen M. Stigler, University of Chicago, author of The Seven Pillars of Statistical Wisdom:
Jonathan Cole played a vital role in the Merton program in the sociology of science. He also was one of the most influential U.S. university administrators, shaping the intellectual landscape at Columbia University and other institutions, and in recent years he has become one of the most important voices defending universities. This book draws together the most important papers he has written or cowritten in all these areas, with a strong introduction that is part memoir and partly an explanation of how these varied topics fit together.
