Full Description
The Real World is the best-selling book for the introductory course because students love it. In every chapter, Ferris and Stein use examples from everyday life, the media, and pop culture to get students thinking sociologically and to show the relevance of sociology to their relationships, jobs, and the future of society. Innovative and assignable Data Workshops give students a chance to apply theoretical concepts to their own lives and get hands-on experience with the tools of social science. New Theory in Everyday Life interactives in the Norton Illumine Ebook, along with Check Your Understanding questions with answer-specific feedback and rich multimodal tools such as short video clips and Dynamic Data Figures, support students as they develop their sociological imaginations.
