内容説明

Illuminating Social Life has enjoyed increasing popularity with each edition. It is the only book designed for undergraduate teaching that shows today's students how classical and contemporary social theories can be used to shed new light on such topics as the internet, the world of work, fast food restaurants, shopping malls, alcohol use, body building, sales and service, and new religious movements. A perfect complement for the sociological theory course to either a standard theory text or other source materials. * 13 original essays by leading scholars in the field who are also experienced undergraduate theory teachers. Substantial Introductions by the Editor link the applied essays to a complete review of the classical and modern social theories used in the book. Headnotes provide a complete context for each essay.
