<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Reprint of 1951 ed.; originally published in French in 1897.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>A classic book about the phenomenon of suicide and its social causes written by one of the world's most influential sociologists. <p/>Emile Durkheim's <i>Suicide </i>addresses the phenomenon of suicide and its social causes. Written by one of the world's most influential sociologists, this classic argues that suicide primarily results from a lack of integration of the individual into society. <i>Suicide </i>provides readers with an understanding of the impetus for suicide and its psychological impact on the victim, family, and society.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Durkheim's contribution was a very considerable one...No investigation of the subject can disregard his views.--<i>American Journal of Psychiatry</i><br><br>Even for the psychoanalytically oriented reader this book holds more than merely historical interest. One cannot help being impressed by the wealth of knowledge and the perspicacity revealed in it, and there have certainly been few more compact presentations of socio-psychological problems...Psychoanalysts no less than sociologists will find the study of Durkheim's book instructive and rewarding. The editor and translators are to be commended for making the work available in an excellent and remarkably lucid translation." --<i>Psychoanalytic Quarterly</i><br>
