Based on over twenty years of classroom experience, Revealing Our
Social World: A Brief Introduction to Sociology is written with the
teaching sociologist in mind. Humorous, accessible, and informal,
the book introduces non-major students to the basic theories,
concepts, and terms of sociology. Revealing Our Social World is
organized into four sections, the first of which discusses the
basics of the sociological perspective and imagination, along with
the development of sociology as a discipline. In the second section
the material examines how people fit into their social landscapes.
This section features topics such as culture, socialization,
groups, social institutions, and deviance. The third section
addresses various forms of inequality, while the fourth examines
the structure of "the daily grind" as it applies to marriage and
family, religion, education, politics, and the economy. Each
chapter lays out the basic elements of the topic using vivid
cross-cultural examples and includes suggested readings, practical
activities, and a section titled "There's an App for That."
Revealing Our Social World is a fresh and engaging text for
introductory sociology courses at the undergraduate level.
