Opis: Perspectives in Sociology - W. W. Sharrock, D. W. Francis, A. J. Dennis

From its first edition in 1979, Perspectives in Sociology has provided generations of undergraduates with a clear, reassuring introduction to the complications of sociological theory. This revised and updated edition features: * a completely rewritten general introduction and conclusion; * all-new introductions to each part, clarifying how each one builds on what came before; * an updated set of formative questions at the end of each chapter; * a comprehensive glossary of key terms.
