About this copy
A well-regarded university and college textbook, Fundamentals of Sociology opens with the essential terms, concepts, theories and methods of the discipline, with careful attention to clarity of style. The first part gives a thorough grounding in sociological theory and method, with a particularly clear treatment of perspectives. The second part introduces the key substantive areas, from socialization and culture to the family, education, work, deviance and population.
Written by a team of experienced teachers and examiners, it reflects the syllabus developments of its day. This copy is a paperback in its original printed card cover, from the 1981 reprint of the first edition. It has a previous owner's name and address written on the title page.
Book: Good – The binding is tight and the text block is intact, with clean pages. The cover shows edge and corner wear, light creasing and some surface scuffing. There is a handwritten name and address on the title page.
Dust jacket: None; issued as a paperback. A pre-owned book; any wear beyond that described is minor and in keeping with its age.
