Sociology in Our Times: The Essentials

Current and relatable, Kendall's bestselling SOCIOLOGY IN OUR TIMES: THE ESSENTIALS presents new data and insights on behaviors, beliefs, issues and trends in our nation and world from a sociological perspective. With an expanded focus on inclusivity, the 12th edition emphasizes the themes of social change, the effects of social media on communication and the intertwining nature of politics and social policy in the U.S. and worldwide. Students explore pressing issues such as gun control, prevention of military suicides, environmental activism and whether employers should be allowed to "spy" on their employees. "You Can Make a Difference" boxes equip students with the tools to get involved in their communities and the world. Captivating first-person accounts of individuals' lived experiences draw students into each chapter while illuminating the text's primary themes. Also available: MindTap.
