Discover Sociology: Core Concepts explores sociology as a discipline of curious minds, in 12 high-priority chapters that focus on theoretical, conceptual, and empirical tools needed to understand, analyze, and even change the world. The Second Edition of Core Concepts is ideal for semester-long courses where instructors want to spend more time on "core" topics and/or assign other course materials, as well as shorter courses (quarter schools, summer and intersession courses).
