This new social problems book emphasizes how students can better
understand social problems if they have a strong foundation in
sociological theory. Ideal for students who are taking their first
sociology course, it also presents a basic introduction to the
discipline. The book highlights the social construction of social
problems by taking a comparative approach - how are the problems we
identify in US society understood and dealt with in other parts of
the world? Finally, there is a heavy emphasis on solutions to
social problems, providing students with the tools to think
critically about how social problems can be effectively addressed.
