A Global Introduction is the most complete learning resource for introductory sociology students across Europe. Written in a lively and engaging way, the new edition of this popular text will engage, excite and challenge students - encouraging them to understand core topics, critique existing arguments, move to the cutting edge and read further around the subject. With a firm focus on UK/European society, issues are discussed in greater detail than in existing textbooks. Of particular significance is the book's global perspective, looking at traditional, modern and postmodern society in a wider multicultural environment.

This is a very good introduction to sociology covering all the main subjects. I read this over a year, taking it slowly and trying to absorb as much of it as I could. I think it would be excellent for undergraduates and the further reading sections are really useful.

An extremely useful sociology book. Depending upon what level of sociology you are taking this book will be varying levels of helpful, but as a whole it is a brilliant reference point.

This book covers countless areas within sociology, working as a brilliant starting point for any of the topics mentioned throughout. It is, however, a reference point book and not something you can use to gain countless pieces of information to build up arguments.

It’s just your starting point, really.

A great book to understand a lot of topics, about this science. Since marxism, positive, functionalism, colonialism, genre, eurocentrism, and authors like Durkheim, Spencer, Comte, Marx, Weber, Morgan, Rostow, Foucault, etc.

Una muy buena introducción a las principales tradiciones sociológicas desde el siglo XIX y de las perspectivas más actuales sobre la globalización y sus dimensiones culturales, políticas y económicas.

Short introductions to lots of topics, alongside critiques, relevant insights, and contemporary discussions. Nice for an absolute beginner, but doesnt go any deeper. The first few chapters were more relevant to me than the middle and last parts.
