Intended for students, this fifth edition features learning aids in every chapter, such as summary points, questions for further thought, and reading suggestions, as well as photographs, diagrams, case studies and cartoons. This fully revised and updated version of Anthony Giddens's "Sociology", now in its fifth edition, offers an unrivalled introduction for students new to the subject - lucid, lively, authoritative and original. Written by one of the world's leading sociologists, this comprehensive textbook manages to be clear, accessible and jargon-free, but without oversimplifying complex debates.
