| Summary, etc |
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.<br/><br/>New to this edition are significant updates on:<br/><br/>Debates about the limits of democracy, and the developing Chinese political alternative.<br/>Political, economic, and social implications of the Covid pandemic.<br/>Assessment of the Donald Trump presidency.<br/>Political, economic, and social implications of the movement from the Trump presidency to the Biden presidency.<br/>Implications of the multitrillion-dollar budget deficits the US government has been running.<br/>The emergence of populist movements throughout the world.<br/>The Chinese political and economic challenge to the United States.<br/>Recent developments in evolution theory.<br/>Examples, data, recommended readings, and Internet questions.<br/>Critical thinking questions. |
