Sociology: A Brief Introduction connects essential sociological theories, research, and concepts to students’ daily experiences. The program highlights the distinctive ways in which sociologists explore human social behavior—and how their research findings can be used to help students think critically about the broader principles that guide their lives. In doing so, it helps students begin to think sociologically, using what they have learned to evaluate human interactions and institutions independently. With up-to-date scholarship, examples, and photos, Dr. Schaefer’s market-leading, student-friendly program features thorough integration of the latest research on race, ethnicity, and globalization.
