Description
This book offers a critical introduction to sociology for New Zealand students. Written in an accessible narrative style, it seeks to challenge and debunk students' assumptions about key elements of their social worlds, encouraging them to develop a 'critical imagination' as a tool to identify broader social themes in personal issues.
