Synopsis

In the brief, third edition of "Sociology: Exploring the Architecture of Everyday Life", author David Newman once again draws students in to the fascinating world of sociological thought. With his eminently readable style and lively personal anecdotes Newman encourages students to take a step back from the textbook and think about how sociology applies to their lives. Using vivid prose, current examples, and fresh data, this brief and concise text presents a well-organized and digestible overview of the social construction of society.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

David M. Newman earned his B.A. from San Diego State University in 1981 and his graduate degrees from the University of Washington in Seattle (M.A. 1984, PhD 1988). After a year at the University of Connecticut, David went to DePauw University in 1989 and has been there ever since. David teaches courses in Contemporary Society, Deviance, Mental Illness, Family, Social Psychology, and Research Methods. He has published numerous articles on teaching and has presented research papers on the intersection of gender and power in intimate relationships. Recently most of his scholarly activity has been devoted to writing and revising several books, including Sociology: Exploring the Architecture of Everyday Life (SAGE, 2014); Identities and Inequalities: Exploring the Intersections of Race, Class, Gender, and Sexuality (McGraw-Hill, 2012); and Families: A Sociological Perspective (McGraw-Hill, 2009). He is currently working on a book-length manuscript that examines the cultural meaning, institutional importance, and social limitations of "second chance" narratives in everyday life.
