Introduction to Sociology: An Anthology provides students with a curated collection of readings that help them develop a foundational understanding of sociological concepts and how these concepts operate in the real world. The volume provides them with an introduction to a variety of social problems and the processes by which social change occurs.
The text is organized into six distinct units, which explore core concepts in sociology; socialization, social interaction, and social change; stratification; politics, deviance, and social control; families and intimate relationships; and the environment, social movements, and social change. Students learn about cultural structures, sex and gender, the safety of women and girls in educational settings, crime and control, intimate partner violence, power dynamics and relationships, and more. Each unit features an editor's introduction to provide students with meaningful context and end-of-unit discussion questions to inspire critical thought and support retention of the material.
Developed to help students better understand how culture, institutions, stratification, and inequality structure our lives, Introduction to Sociology is an ideal resource for foundational courses within the discipline.
