Ten questions a sociological perspective

Synopsis

This book employs a unique approach to introducing and examining sociological principles by posing and answering in each chapter a question such as: What does it mean to be human? Are human beings free? Why is there misery in the world? The book examines the philosophies of the classical sociologists such as Marx, Webber, Durkheim, Mead, and Berger and looks at how the field of sociology has approached these questions over the past 150 years. A nice alternative to a traditional introductory sociology text.
