Sociology, 10ce

Macionis, Gerber & Colavecchia

Sociological theories provide us with unique ways of understanding the world around us and our place in it. While the text has a Canadian focus, the chapters also speak to broader global trends and social problems and encourages readers to develop a sense of curiosity about the world, to ask questions, and to go beyond the text to learn more about the issues that they care about.

Deviance, Conformity, and Social Control in Canada, 6e

Bereska

Deviance, Conformity, and Social Control in Canada provide a broad, accessible, and critical introduction to the study of deviance. Unlike other texts on the market, it introduces both objective and subjective theoretical approaches in two early chapters and devotes the remainder of the text to substantive issues of particular interest to students. Each of these issues is then critically assessed and cohesively presented within a broader sociocultural context.

Exploring Sociology: A Canadian Perspective, 5e

Ravelli

Through its distinctive approach to the field, its inclusion of indigenous voices and perspectives, and its relevance to students’ lives, this text helps professors develop the sociological imagination in their students by encouraging them to see sociology through multiple lenses. Topics are presented in ways that allow students to engage with the material and to exercise their sociological imaginations.

Community Development in Canada, 3e

Brown

Our vision for this text, therefore, was to include theoretical and historical perspectives, as well as a brief look at the contemporary approaches used and skills needed by community workers. We have highlighted many major contributions by Canadians to the development and practice of community development. We are very pleased to have prepared this third edition of the text, which remains consistent with the purpose and themes outlined in the first edition but has been updated throughout to reflect current and emerging aspects of community development practice in Canada.

Social Dimensions of Canadian Sport and Physical Activity, 2e

Scherer

Sport and Physical Culture in Canadian Society is based on the idea that historical, comparative, and critical reflection is needed if we are to better understand, and indeed work towards improving, relationships between and in sport, physical culture, and society. Students learn, for example, that the opportunities to participate in various sports in Canada are by no means equitable, and that significant and enduring issues and problems remain in contemporary sport and physical culture. More importantly, they learn that the personal troubles that individuals experience along these lines are intimately connected to public issues of social structure and historical relations.

Close Relations: An Introduction to the Sociology of Families, 6e

McDaniel

Close Relations: An Introduction to the Sociology of Families, Sixth Edition is a Canadian book, rooted in sociological research from around the world, reflecting concerns of the twenty-first century. It continues to cover the most important topics in the family literature and, as before, ends with a look at the future of families. 

Basics of Social Research, 4ce

Neuman

The fourth Canadian edition of Basics of Social Research introduces students to social research and presents “what researchers do and why” in a non-threatening manner that captures both the excitement and the importance of doing real research. A course in social research methodology differs from most other social science courses in that it prepares students to think more systematically about content ​and reveals how content findings are created. That is, social research methods teach students how knowledge in social sciences comes into being.
