Description
The Sociology Introductory Readings by Anthony Giddens and Philip W. Sutton offers a comprehensive and engaging exploration of sociological thought and practice. This revised edition brings together a diverse range of readings, covering key themes such as face-to-face interaction, global systems, digital sociology, and climate change. Grouped around ten key sociological themes, the book provides a productive mix of classic, contemporary, and provocative readings that retain their critical bite. The carefully curated collection includes new selections on topics like decolonial turn, racism, and the social impact of COVID-19, as well as feminist research and income inequalities. Ideal for students of sociology or as a companion to other textbooks, this reader provides an exciting new resource that encompasses major themes and debates in both classical and contemporary sociology.
