Sociological Thinking An Introduction focuses on guiding the reader into thinking sociologically and developing a critical and open minded outlook on society. With this aim in mind readers are led to examine and deconstruct their preconceptions about society and reconstruct an understanding through the reflective use of sociological concepts and theories. Each chapter is prefaced with an abstract to orientate the reader to the forthcoming chapter content and highlight typical preconceptions that need to be confronted in making a successful transition from layperson to sociologist. Definitions of key terms are integrated into the text to help the reader acquire a sound conceptual grounding in the subject. Audiences who would benefit from the text include Students who are looking for a reflective alternative which can be used to complement the standard texts.

Students in higher education who are new to the subject area and are looking for an introductory text in sociology. The general reader who is interested in contemporary issues such as those surrounding globalisation and who is looking for an approachable text. 264 pp.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In writing this new introduction, the author has remained faithful to the aims of the previous volume that was published in 2008.

Compared to the previous volume, the author has integrated a range of selective quotations. Also, to assist the reader in following up a broader range of resources, the original list of recommended books has been expanded into a short bibliography and key referencing has been provided. The author has approached this work with the aim of providing a manageable length and accessible introduction to sociology. The text concentrates more heavily than standard A level texts on guiding the reader to develop the psychological and intellectual qualities that are necessary to effectively approach the subject.
