Elements of Sociology is designed as a core text for college classes in introductory sociology. Beginning with the earliest roots of sociology, including early thinkers not usually included in the sociological canon, the book examines how sociology looks at everyday life, including standard sociological areas of concern such as the family, deviance, and culture, as well as contemporary concerns such as the sociology of medicine and globalization. Critical-thinking questions are integrated throughout the text; additional pedagogical material includes chapter objectives, further readings and websites, chapter summaries, end-of-chapter glossaries, and a CD containing additional resources. This updated census edition includes an appendix of the most recent Canadian census data.
