Offering a
unique introduction to the analysis of contemporary Canadian society,
this in-depth study focuses on both the roots of modern civilizations
and the current political economy of Canada. Drawing on various
sociological theories as well as anthropology, genetics, economics,
history, philosophy, politics, and social psychology, this accessible
and integrated book helps undergraduate students make sense of a complex
social world. Allowing students to open their minds to the
“sociological imagination” by connecting the world to their own lived
experiences, this revised edition includes several new topics,
reorganized chapters, and student-friendly language.
