内容説明
Mastering Sociology, now in its fourth edition, has been fully revised to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to this popular subject. Topics covered include: the terms and concepts of sociology, the family, education, demographic issues, and the political system. This book offers invaluable guidance on preparing for exams, writing coursework, and answering data response and stimulus questions effectively. It builds students' knowledge and confidence using self-test questions and answers, and includes extracts from original source materials as well as a glossary of sociological terms.
