Our Social World: Condensed Version
In this brief text, two leaders of the Teaching Sociology movement help students develop their sociological imaginations by teaching them to role-take within their global society, allowing them to experience what it is like to be someone as seemingly remote as a child sex slave in India. An innovative, integrated framework provides core sociological concepts, while features such as Contributing to Our Social World enable students to “do” public sociology.
Sociology: Exploring the Architecture of Everyday Life Readings, Eighth Edition
This companion anthology provides provocative examples of the practice of sociology in a well-edited, well-designed, and affordable format. Its various readings examine common everyday experiences, important social issues, or distinct historical events that illustrate the relationship between the individual and society, with expansive discussion of sociological theory and methodologies; coverage of topical issues like climate change; new readings showing how race, class, gender, and sexual orientation intersect; and thorough coverage of global issues and world religions.
