Émile Durkheim

In the kind of human behavior I had to read a book by Émile Durkheim "The rules of the sociological method" which struck me his particular vision of sociology and his way of understanding the individual where he explains about the person serving the social fact exerting coercion in their decisions.
He is a sociologist, pedagogue and French anthropologist, one of the pioneers in the development of modern sociology. His books have been a revolution in the view of sociology.
His works are: "on division of social work (1893)", suicide (1897), the elementary forms of the religious life (1912), between others.
My admiration he wakes it up the fact that I love the studies on individuals, because I find that we know ourselves from other perspective.  Also the places the individual in a social context where their environment to influence the way of being of each one.

To finish, I would like to invite my classmates to read it as it serves a lot for the course of the race, since you require many of the readings in the majority of the matter and also shows us a more humane vision of individuals and not as mechanical as the majority of the authors of this race.
