Product Description

Henslin's best-selling brief paperback text shares the excitement of sociology–its acclaimed “down-to-earth” approach and personal writing style highlight the sociology of everyday life and its relevance to students' lives. This text is a brief version of the highly regarded hardcover introductory text, Sociology: A Down-to-Earth Approach, 7/e. The essential 15 chapters cover all of the topics in the 22-chapter text, and retain the dual emphases on micro and macro (individual and structural) sociology. James Henslin has a unique ability to engage students without talking down to them or sacrificing content. With wit, personal reflection, and illuminating examples, he shares with readers a passion for sociology unmatched by any other introductory text.

Sociology review, 2008-07-19
I would like everyone to know that for a class that calls for the latest edition, which is usually hundreds of dollars, they can easily get an A with an older edition. I have proved it with this book. Even though the teacher said I would have a hard time I found everything where it was supposed to be maybe a page or two off but it was all there. This is a great book even if you are not taking a sociology class.

This book is alright........., 2008-02-07
I ordered this book since it was for one of my classes and i was very disappointed with what i received. Grant it, it was page for page exactly the book that i ordered, but when i recieved it, it had this black border that said "free book, not for resale" all over it!! Like written in white all along this black border. BUT for some reason, it's NOT in the picture and that's just not right. Plus, it's not like i can sell it anywhere, i mean it says "dont sell" all over it. If i would've known that was what i was getting, then i probably would've just gone to the bookstore and spent a little more to get a regular one that i'd be able to sell back. But if it makes any difference at all, i got it on time. This is like one of the only disappointments i've ever gotten from amazon.

The product was everything that it had listed. It's in great shape and all the pages where there no extra marking of any sort.
