Introduction to Sociology provides students with a carefully
curated selection of readings that demonstrate how everyday human
interactions construct our global social world. The collection
offers students an array of unique perspectives on foundational
sociological concepts and an engaging look into real-world issues
and the global impacts of social life. The text is divided into 13
chapters. The opening chapter provides students with a general
introduction to sociology and describes three basic types of
sociological traditions. Additional chapters introduce readers to
sociological research methods, concepts related to culture, the
idea of socialization, and perceptions of deviance and crime. They
explore readings on social stratification, race as a social
construct, contemporary constructions of gender and sexuality, and
the role and function of marriage and family in modern times.
Education, politics, globalization, population, and urbanization
are discussed within the context of sociology. The book closes with
a chapter dedicated to social change and social movements. Written
to help students understand how sociological theories can support
their understanding of our social world, Introduction to Sociology
is an ideal resource for foundational courses in discipline.
