ReviewsThank you to the reviewers of the new edition: Rebecca Riehm, Jefferson Community College William Wood, California State University Fullerton Rudy Harris, Des Moines Area Comm. College Judi Kessler, Monmouth College Dale Howard, NorthWest Arkansas Community College Robert Atkins, North Seattle Community College Richard Sweeney, Modesto Junior College Dave Conz, Arizona State University Robert Brainerd, Highland Community College "Allows the reader to appreciate the relevance of sociology in everyday life." Boyejo Adefuye Collin County Community College "Macionis provides tables, charts, and several visuals summaries that other texts do not. These tools not only assist students towards understanding how sociology "works" in society, but they also facilitate an understanding of "why" social inequities exist in the US and abroad." Anita Gardner Mitchell Community College "Macionis is visually stunning." Patricia Gibbs Foothill College "Engaging, accessible narrative and illustrations / learning tools." Patricia Gibbs Foothill College "Good definitions, nicely organized...students do not have to go "searching" for information during the process of studying for exams." Christine Janis Northern Illinois University "I like the way this text "backed" into the theory by first presenting concepts/empirical evidence and then theory." Chalane Lechuga University of New Mexico, Albuquerque "I like how well balanced the text is between, structural-function, conflict, and symbolic interaction perspectives." Chalane Lechuga University of New Mexico, Albuquerque "Text is well supported by online student materials, in text review, and an excellent study guide."
