Sociology Australia, 3rd Edition (ePub/PDF) gives us the tools we need to understand our life and the lives of the people around us. It reveals that our commonsense view of the world isn’t always right, enabling us to discover what shapes our experiences.
In this widely used and very readable introductory textbook, Judith Bessant and Rob Watts show us how to develop a sociological perspective on what is happening in Australia today. Rapid and far-reaching social changes are taking place which affect us all: globalisation is impacting on our economy and culture; technological developments increase the pace of life; and many people worry about the decline of traditional values and about environmental and personal security. Using a sociological perspective we can explain why different groups of people experience these changes as exciting, unsettling or devastating.
Sociology Australia is structured around six key questions:
* What is sociology?
* Can we make our lives as we want them?
* How do we know the world in which we live?
* Who makes the decisions that shape our society?
* What changes are taking place in Australia today?
* Who are we, and how do we come to be who we are?
Sociology Australia, Third Edition, is an ideal introduction to the discipline of sociology and to the dynamics of Australian society today. This 3rd edition of Sociology Australia has been substantially revised and updated, and includes new chapters on religion, education, and sustainability.
