Sociology: A Global Perspective

This is the only introductory sociology text to use a truly comparative approach to teach sociological concepts and ideas. While other introductory sociology texts claim to be global via inclusion of global boxes, Ferrantes text uses an in-depth examination of life in other countries to help students understand sociological concepts. By integrating throughout each chapter the connections to American society, students also gain a greater understanding of global interdependence and societal differences and similarities.
