Global Sociology by Robin Cohen

The second edition of a ground-breaking text, "Global Sociology, 2nd edition" will be compulsory for introductory sociology courses which take a truly global perspective. Building on the success of the ambitious first edition, the book retains and defends its innovative focus and approach. Extensively updated in the light of the most recent debates about globalization, particularly in the post 9/11 climate, this new edition also includes three wholly new chapters on lifestyle and leisure, global religions, and health, and substantial further pedagogical features. Changes, both in the public and academic sphere, make this new edition highly important to the teaching of sociology today.
