For courses in Introductory Sociology An inquiry based approach to spark the sociological imagination Organized around the big questions in the core subfields of the discipline, Revel™ The Sociology Project: Essentials shows how sociologists analyze our world, and sets students off on their own journeys of sociological inquiry.
