A sociology text built with today’s students in mind
This edition strengthens the authors’ commitment to creating a text students want to read by bringing diverse perspectives into the learning experience. New to this edition, the Student Advisory Council helped shape content and examples and created reflection videos on issues that matter to today’s learners. Indigenous Council Videos share Indigenous insights and lived experiences on important issues shaping Canadian society.
