Description of  Sociology, 5th Revised Edition

This is prepared as a textbook for college classrooms but is accessible to any reader that wants to better understand societies. The book was written in the firm belief that sociology has a key role to play in modern intellectual culture and a central place in the social sciences. It does not make a virtue of sociological jargon, but rather its language is straightforward and accessible for students, though it does not shy away from complex debates. The book weaves together classical and contemporary theory and data, and provides a wide range of everyday examples to which students can easily relate.
