Publisher's Synopsis
"This alternate version of Discover Sociology contains fewer chapters without sacrificing depth of coverage. The text consists of 12 of the highest-priority topics--the ones that appear on most introductory sociology syllabi. It focuses on the same key themes (power and inequality, the sociological imagination) and includes the same special features (Discover and Debate, What Can I Do With a Sociology Degree, Behind the Numbers, Discover Intersections) as the parent text. Discover Sociology: Core Concepts is ideal for shorter courses (quarter schools, summer and intersession courses), or semester-long courses where instructors want to spend more time on "core" topics and/or assign other course materials"--.
