Terrible Magnificent Sociology (Paperback)

Using engaging stories and a diverse cast of characters, Lisa Wade memorably delivers what C. Wright Mills described as both the terrible and the magnificent lessons of sociology. With chapters that build upon one another, Terrible Magnificent Sociology represents a new kind of introduction to sociology. Recognising the many statuses students carry, Wade goes beyond race, class and gender, considering inequalities of all kinds-and their intersections. She also highlights the remarkable diversity of sociology, not only of its methods and approaches but also of the scholars themselves, emphasising the contributions of women, immigrants and people of colour. The book ends with an inspiring call to action, urging students to use their sociological imaginations to improve the world in which they live.
