New edition of a text that shows how social class sets people on different paths in life, and the directions these paths take in terms of health, education, and marriage. Each chapter begins with a vignette, and also contains a preview outline and summary sections. Four types of boxes focus on down-to-earth sociology on current topics, cultural diversity, technology, and mass media in social life. The 22 chapters discuss the sociological perspective, social groups and social control, and social inequality, institutions, and change. Attractively formatted and illustrated in color and b&w.
