Summary
This mainstream book is characterized by its superior scholarship, accessible writing style, unmatched coverage of diversity, and unparalleled, integrated technology resources. Treating diversity as central to the rich fabric of our society, the authors include research and data that illustrate how class, race-ethnicity, gender, age, geographic residence, and sexual orientation relate to the topics covered. Speaking to students in a friendly and inviting way, the authors encourage them to think globally, question commonly held beliefs, assess different perspectives used by sociologists, and to use this process to understand the forces that generate change and continuity in our society.

The Best Intro Sociology Textbook
March 31, 2011
This textbook is required for my class, but I am also enjoying it which seems to be a rare thing. It presents information in a readable style and is not dry or loathsome to study from, the book delivered to me in a good condition and very fast, I enjoyed my purchase experience with ecampus, I recommend it.
