In this new, revised, and updated edition, Lemert continues the narrative that made Social Things a best seller among sociologists and a favorite among students. In an entirely new chapter, he opens the sociological imagination to new global realities--a topic much debated by sociologists today. What they and politicians call globalization is lived by people all over the world who seek and often fail to find a better life. The new chapter, called Global Methods, shows just how both practical and professional sociologies--apart from sharing so much in common--share also the necessity of rethinking the methods by which people figure out what globalization means in their lives.
Industry Reviews
Charles Lemert makes sociology vital and alive in this provocative yet friendly introduction. Lemert uses personal biography and the life stories of famous sociologists, including leading female and black sociologists too often overlooked. In a probing analysis he brings in tough questions of race, class, and gender that most other introductions bypass.--Joe Feagin, Author of White Racism
