'...there is no doubt that N. Crossley has made a significant
contribution to relational sociology. This is exactly the kind of

social scientist interested in relational sociology should read and
criticize this book carefully.'-Francois Depelteau, Laurentian

4'...clear, fresh and ambitious...' '...elements of the social
cosmos underplayed...by Bourdieu are fruitfully brought to the
fore. Crossley’s intriguing rereading of Foucault through network
lenses, for example, offers a potentially fertile means of
investigating the circuits of symbolic power.' -Will Atkinson,
University of Bristol in Sociology, vol 46 no 1
