Description

Unique for its blend of style and substance, this introductory text uses a balanced and systematic application of sociological theory throughout to help students see the difference between myths and realities about society. From the Back Cover Sociology: A Brief Introduction, 7/E Alex Thio, OhioUniversityISBN-10:      0205547095     Unique for its blend of style and substance, this introductory text uses a balanced and systematic application of sociological theory throughout to help students see the difference between myths and realities about society.       Highlights of the new edition Four new sections in each chapter examine sociology’s connection to the world around us: Sociological Frontier analyzes current social changes and trends.  (For example: “Who Gets Tattoos and Why?”) Current Events looks at recent world events through a sociological lens. (For example: “The War Trauma in Women Soldiers.”) Today's Controversy investigates controversial issues in contemporary society. (For example: “Is the U.S. Losing Its World Leadership?”) For a Better Life uses insights from sociology to show how we can improve our lives. (For example:  “Unleash the Power of Nice.”)     About the Author Alex Thio is Professor of Sociology at Ohio University. Born of Chinese parentage in Penang, Malaysia, he grew up in a multicultural environment. He acquired fluency in Mandarin (modern standard Chinese), Malay, and Indonesian. He also picked up a smattering of English and Dutch. He took French and German in high school and college.   Professor Thio attended primary school in Malaysia and high school in Indonesia. He then came to the United States and worked his way through Central Methodist College in Missouri, where he majored in social sciences. Later, he studied sociology as a graduate student at the State University of New York at Buffalo, and he completed his doctorate while working as a research and teaching assistant.   Professor Thio regularly teaches courses in deviance, introductory sociology, social problems, and criminology. In addition to teaching, he enjoys writing. He is the author of the Sociology: A Brief Introduction, Society: Myths and Realities (Penguin Academic), and Deviant Behavior.
