provides abstracts of books, book chapters, dissertations, and
conference papers.
- Type of coverage
- Citations with abstracts. Many records from key journals in sociology, added to the database
since 2002, also include the references cited in the bibliography of the source article. Each
individual reference may also have links to an abstract and/or to other papers that cite that
reference; these links increase the possibility of finding more potentially relevant articles. These
references are linked both within Sociological Abstracts and across other social science
databases.
