5.0 out of 5 stars
Brilliant book,
By Kim Betts (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sociology (Paperback)
I am a social work student and I purchased this book for my sociology module. The book is informative and easy to understand. I think this book will be very useful for future information and I intend to dip in and out of it during my degree. I recommend this to students.

An exciting and comprehensive introduction to sociology.,
By
This review is from: Sociology (Paperback)
Anthony Giddens' 'Sociology' was first published in 1989 and this 1194-page, 6th edition(2009) is probably the best yet. Clearly written and extensively revised with a new chapter on war and terrorism, this intellectually stimulating, comprehensive and jargon-free introduction to sociology is an ideal guide for A-level students, undergraduates and the general reader who wishes to make sense of our complex social world.

Highly recommended,
By
This review is from: Sociology (Paperback)
This is an excellent introduction to Sociology, but also provides plenty that would be of interest to someone with more familiarity on the subject. The book is structured like a textbook, but is very readable, unlike most textbooks I am familiar with. Giddens has also added a few interesting new chapters including on terrorism, so it is very current.
