Editorial Reviews
Review
"One of the essentials features that I use to determine how student-friendly a textbook might be is based on whether the chapter material is just merely presented; or are there breaks in the material. I really believe the Kornblum textbook does a superior job in directing students to actually use and think about the concepts presented. I often use these boxed features as focus points for classroom discussions and/or homework assignments." Jerry Michel Univ. of Memphis
"The writing style is a plus. Kornblum strikes the right balance between scholarly academic-speak and conversational writing. The pedagogical voice is one of a trusted professor explaining key concepts to students in a way that they can understand. He challenges the student to consider these ideas. The writing is not overly done, nor too simple. It certainly does not insult their intelligence." Linda Treiber Kennesaw State University

This review is from: Sociology in a Changing World (Hardcover)
I had it rushed but due to weather it arrived later than I had hoped, but this was hardly the seller's fault. The book was in better condition than I expected, and was a great deal. I would definitely buy from this seller again.
