Description

Meeting students where they are

Mastering Sociology  is not a typical textbook; it develops a sociological imagination while promoting the learning skills needed to succeed beyond the classroom. It is a book that will enable all of your students to succeed. It transforms students from just moving through their lives to understanding their lives from a sociological perspective.
