Synopsis:

Sociology: A Brief Introduction invites students to take sociology with them in their daily lives.  This successful student-friendly program includes strong coverage of race, ethnicity, and globalization.  The approachable material encourages students to develop their sociological imaginations and start to think like a sociologist.  Paired with Connect, a personal and adaptive learning experience, students learn to apply sociology's three theoretical frameworks to the world around them.

Dr. Schaefer became a professor of sociology and now teaches at DePaul University in Chicago.
