The Rise of Professional Society is written by Harold Perkin and published by Routledge. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1134416814 (ISBN 10) and 9781134416813 (ISBN 13).

The Rise of Professional Society lays out a stimulating and controversial framework for the study of British society, challenging accepted paradigms based on class analysis. Perkins argues that the non-capitalist "professional class" represents a new principle of social organization based on trained expertise and meritocracy, a "forgotten middle class" conveniently overlooked by classical social theorists.
