Product Description

Book Description

This new edition of the highly successful textbook for AS level sociology is fully updated to meet the requirements of the new AQA specification which will be taught in schools and colleges from September 2008. With dozens of contemporary references, student activities, questions and examiners' advice, the book is accessible to the whole ability range and has the depth of coverage needed to achieve high grades. Chapters on 'Families and Households' and 'Education' have been updated, for example, with sections on life-course, demography and social policy, and the chapter on 'Sociological Methods' is unique in the emphasis it gives to the new 'Methods in Context' question. The companion 'A2 Sociology - the complete course for the AQA specification' will be published Spring 2009


From the Publisher

This new edition of "AS level Sociology" fits the 2008 AQA specification exactly with a sustained focus on the new `Methods in Context' question, through:
* Methods Links panels throughout the Education chapter
* A special section on Education: the research context
* Methods in Context sections applying all the methods to Education
* Practice questions on Methods in Context like those in the new exam with answers and examiner guidance

5.0 out of 5 stars Covers everything, but readable, 25 Feb 2005
By Mrs RB Morton (Woking, Surrey United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This book is the best textbook I've seen for AS-level sociology. It covers all the material to a good level of detail - meaning that it's worth getting your students to read it - and is packed full of up-to-date studies. At the same time the students can actually read it easily - it's targeted at the right level for them and the sensible use of pictures to illustrate points helps to break up the text, as do the relevant sub-headings. In addition to this there are a range of useful and specific questions and exercises for most sections (although in some places it could do with some more). My only questions are when is the A2 version coming out? and also what about an OCR oriented version?

5.0 out of 5 stars At last a complete course book, 10 May 2005
By A Customer
This book actually covers all the bits missed by the others. Enough detail for AS students but not too wordy. Well laid out and good activities

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a book I'd recomment to any student, teacher or centre..., 24 Oct 2007
The book is really helpful. Both for using in a classroom and for revising or studying at home. It slowly prepares students who are new to the subject of sociology and essay questions, for the examination through giving examples of essays and encouraging students to think about what they are writing. It has lots of examiner tips and it is easy to understand. it is for students of all abilities as it is clear and concise and speaks about sociologist in a way that makes it interesting. Just using this book alone is enough to teach a student everything they need to learn to get an A grade in it, provided the students uses the book correctly. I would recommend it to any student, teacher or centre who are doing the AQA syllabus and want to get top grades.
