It offers a strong global focus: a global perspective is integrated into each chapter to encourage students to think of global society as a logical extension of their own micro world. It illustrates the practical side of sociology: boxes highlight careers and volunteer opportunities for those with a background in sociology as well as policy issues that sociologists influence. It encourages critical thinking. It provides various research strategies and illustrates concrete examples of the method being used to help students develop a more sophisticated epistemology. It presents 'The Social World Model' in each chapter. This visually-compelling organizing framework opens each chapter and helps students understand the interrelatedness of core concepts. This title contains: thirty new boxed features, including the innovative 'Engaging Sociology' and 'Applied Sociologists at Work' features; three substantially reorganised chapters (2. Examining the Social World, 3. Society and Culture, and 13. Politics and Economics); and, 315 entirely new references and 120 new photos.
