Excellent book for an intro sociology course. It was very helpful and easy to understand, especially since it had the little extras like the vocab words and current event examples laced throughout the chapters. I would highly recommend this book as well as the subject to others.
really good condition and helped me with socio homework and it was cheep good deal semester almost over and im makin an A in the class... the seller hooked it up for a low price and it cam in real good condition
This is a good book. It's easy to read and makes understanding sociological concept much more easy to understand. Having a great professor to help you stay focused and interested dosen't help either : )
This is a brief, basic survey of sociology, using the ideas of globalization to apply or exemplify its major points. Since it is already a shorter text than most and often confines its examples to international situations (which are often admittedly interesting), one comes away with a desire to know more about the basic ideas of gender, poverty, crime, racism, etc. and how they apply in the U.S. than the book provides. The book numbers 365 pages, subtracting the index and appendices, making it more useful perhaps for a high-school rather than a college population. For such a small text, the list price of over $200 is rather incredible.
this book is great for sociology and the theories that are in the sociological world. definitely a great book for class or for someone who is interested in sociology
The price is beyond absurd for the content ($150 for the E-Book is insulting).Overall the concepts presented are comparable to any other sociology text. There are good, though overly sensational, arguments are used to make a point.The bottom line is this textbook is no better or worse than the other sociology text books. The price on the other hand is ridiculous and no one should require their students to buy this book above a cheaper alternative.
A lot of knowledge in this book, great for my SOC class, I barely used it for class, but kept it and I find myself reading it on occasion.
I recommend this book for anyone interested in sociology. It is an easy read, interesting, and easy to follow.
