For freshman/sophomore-level courses in the Introduction to Social Sciences. May also be used in Global Issues, World Community, Introduction to International Studies, Interdependence courses.
Cutting-edge in both perspective and approach, this introduction to the social sciences covers ALL the traditional social science concepts—but views them through a modern prism. Using a lively, clear style, it provides a genuinely interdisciplinary exploration of contributions from all six social science disciplines (sociology, anthropology, psychology, economics, political science, geography); reflects contemporary global interdependence; offers a post-Cold War analytical framework; and recognizes the indebtedness of the social sciences to the natural sciences and the humanities. Case studies, feature film analyses, maps, and photos highlight important historical events and concepts throughout.
