Description: |
This text provides an approach to the study of introductory sociology, looking at the social world from a global perspective and recognizing that it is increasingly difficult to understand one country in isolation from another. The text is illustrated by examples from the UK, Europe and the world. |
Synopsis: |
Sociology: A Global Introduction is the most complete learning resource for introductory sociology students across Europe. Written in a lively and engaging way, the new edition of this popular text will engage, excite and challenge students - encouraging them to understand core topics, critique existing arguments, move to the cutting edge and read further around the subject. With a firm focus on UK/European society, issues are discussed in greater detail than existing textbooks. Of particular significance is the book's global perspective, looking at traditional, modern and postmodern society in a wider multicultural environment. |
