Sociological insight

First published: 1982

Description

Collins’s goal is to share what he refers to as “non-obvious” insights from sociology, to show why sociology is a unique and powerful way of thinking about the social world. The very readable chapters range over topics such as crime, relationships, and power; in each case, Collins shows why thinking about the topic sociologically lets you understand it in a way you might not otherwise.
