Product Description
A collection of readings selected to complement Sociology: A Down-to-Earth Approach, Seventh Edition, by Jim Henslin. A message from the author: It is gratifying to see that students and instructors alike have responded so favorably to Sociology: A Down-to-Earth Approach. Since many instructors want to give their students the opportunity to read original sociological research, I have designed this brief anthology as a companion for Sociology. Because readings follow the text's outline chapter for chapter and I have chosen a single reading for each chapter, it is easy to incorporate them into the course. Jim Henslin

 Life in Boredom
This is book is part of the curriculum for my sociology class. I would have to say that if I were not taking the class, this book would never hit my eyes. And, rightly so, the book really does nothing more than write stories about different societies. Much of which is truly the definition of boring. I am a fan of sociology, more or less, but, I had hoped that we would have had a better book to read other than this piece of literature.

 Depends... ( ajpadre )
This book I had with a sociology class. Its basically a bunch of articles that top notch sociologist have written about different ideas or topics.
I would say if you love sociology than you will love this book, if you hate sociology then some of the articles will be pleasing to you however half of them will not.
Some are very easy written, which provides with easy reading.
However on the other hand some are very long and drawn out as you keep counting how many pages you have to go. I liked it, however some people may not!
