“It is easy to read and gets to the point quickly without including unnecessary details. I also like that it provides realistic solutions, things that can be done either by individual or group effort…Rarely do I find a book that so clearly and concisely presents the material is such an accessible engaging manner. I just hope it never goes out of print!”
“I adopted this book because of its readability and its emphasis on solving problems. Social problems can, quite frankly, be depressing to cover day in and day out. It's great to be able to end each unit or topic of discussion on a high note by discussing solutions.”
I've used this book, including previous editions, for a number of semesters and it's been very useful.
I lIke the information contained in this book, but it was a little light on introductory knowledge for my freshman level class. I may adopt it as a supplement next semester, but I don't think it could stand on its own in my particular class.
