Social Blueprints is a concise introduction to sociological thought
that is a refreshing alternative to the approaches of traditional
textbooks and other brief introductions to the field. David K.
Brown introduces students to concepts and theories that form the
foundation of sociological reasoning. In a highly engaging style,
he uses personal experiences, salient cultural examples, and
pressing social issues to ground these ideas in the everyday
experiences of students.
In five cogent chapters, Brown explores how core sociological
ideas such as culture, social structure, identities, power, and
globalization can better inform our understanding of the social
world. He uses contemporary, historical, and global examples drawn
from realms such as music, professional sports, fashion, film,
government, warfare, protests, corporations, workplaces, education,
crime, poverty, architecture, and tourism to lend immediate
relevance to sociological endeavor. Acutely focused and written
with a clear, critical point of view, Social Blueprints is ideal
for use in introductory and other sociology courses as either a
primary or supplemental text.
