Now in its eigthteenth edition, Social Science: An Introduction to the Study of Society approaches its study from a common sense perspective, rather than a formalistic perspective more common in social science texts. Readers will see how seemingly diverse disciplines intermingle and connect to one another-anthropology and economics, for example. The goal of the book is to teach students critical thinking and problem-solving skills that will allow them to approach social issues in an objective and informed way.
New to this edition are significant updates on:
- Debates about the limits of democracy, and the developing Chinese political alternative.
- Political, economic, and social implications of the Covid pandemic.
- Assessment of the Donald Trump presidency.
- Political, economic, and social implications of the movement from the Trump presidency to the Biden presidency.
- Implications of the multitrillion-dollar budget deficits the US government has been running.
- The emergence of populist movements throughout the world.
- The Chinese political and economic challenge to the United States.
- Recent developments in evolution theory.
- Examples, data, recommended readings, and Internet questions.
- Critical thinking questions.
