First edition of the author's magnum opus. Octavo, original cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed by Daniel Bell on the front free endpaper a month before publication, "For George and Nancy Homans with affectionate regards, Dan Bell Dec. 18, 1975." The recipient, George Homans was a sociologist, founder of behavioral sociology and a colleague of Bell's at Harvard University. He is known for his research in social behavior and his works including The Human Group, Social Behavior: Its Elementary Forms, his Exchange Theory and the many different propositions he enforced to better explain social behavior. A few pencil notes in the text by Homans, fine in a near fine dust jacket. An excellent association, linking these two intellectual giants.
