The most relevant textbook for today’s students, The Real World succeeds in classrooms because it focuses on the perspective that students care about most―their own.
The Real World shows students how personally relevant sociology can be with a clever mix of popular culture, everyday life, and extensive student activities. Professors describe the book as “hip and accessible,” and students love the authors’ contemporary examples and emphasis on students’ experiences."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
