Keith A. Roberts

Motivate your college students to develop their sociological imaginations in Our Social World.

Focused on deep learning rather than memorization, Our Social World: Introduction to Sociology, 6th Edition, (PDF) motivates readers to analyze, evaluate, and implement information about the social world; to see the link between the world and personal events from a new perspective; to meet sociological issues on a day-to-day basis. Structured around the “Social World Model”, a conceptual framework used across chapters to see the complicated links between several micro- to macro-levels of the social system, students will develop the practice of using three levels of analysis, and view sociology as an integrated whole, instead of a set of discrete subjects.
