Essential Concepts in Sociology by Anthony Giddens
Social life is in a constant process of change, and sociology can never stand still. As a result, sociology today is a theoretically diverse enterprise, covering a huge range of subjects and drawing on a broad array of research methods.
Anthony Giddens, now Baron Giddens, has spent a lifetime thinking about and teaching sociology to students in the UK and across the globe[...] With this current work, Giddens and Sutton continue [the] tradition of providing a well-written introduction to sociological thinking that is accessible to all, but have cleverly done so in a format that is thinner and more easily digestible - well suited for a new generation of students more accustomed to accessing learning materials online in bite-sized chunks. -Reference Reviews
