Ebook: The Blackwell dictionary of sociology: a user's guide to sociological language

This one-volume dictionary defines often amorphous and fuzzy sociological concepts in a lively and sensible way, and provides an introduction to what it means to think sociologically. For a deeper understanding of social life, and of the only discipline dedicted to making sense of it in all its diversity, this dictionary is a perfect guide. The combination of clear prose, engaging examples, and a single author's strong voice makes this a distinctive and valuable reference work.
