Book Description:
|
Stark introduces students to the content, methods and theories of the discipline through the investigations that sociologists have done. He treats sociology as a dynamic human activity, based in sociologists' desire to explain and understand the social world. By looking over the shoulders of researchers in every chapter and approaching the field in a selective and inductive manner, students not only learn content but also carry away with them a new perspective on the world.
