About 50 textbooks of Educational Sociology and/or Sociology of Education have been published since 1949 in Japan. By making a chronology of them, it is showed that, while until about the middle of the 1960's textbooks were written by single authors, thereafter nearly all textbooks were written by plural writers. Why does this change occur? In my opinion, in about the first half of the 1950's, the main purpose to write a textbook was to give an overall view of Educational Sociology which was recognised as a professional subject of the teachers' college or the department of education in 1949. Then, if only an author would search and digest many books to be referred to, it was not difficult for him to write such a textbook by himself that would cover nearly the whole realm of this subject. Thereafter, educational sociologists and/or sociologists of education went on to research and study many educational facts and social problems of education. Their outcomes are so abundant and cover a wide field. Under the circumstances, the textbook as well must contain those research outcomes. However, it is difficult for anyone to write such a textbook by oneself. It is possible only by many writers supervised by an expert on the subject.
