Studying social life? This book provides an engaging, concise introduction. It covers a diverse range of theorists from the rich history of sociology and shows how thinking sociologically can help us understand our lives, the groups we are part of, and the rapid social changes and inequalities that shape contemporary societies. In this book you will encounter: ·   Compelling international examples and a range of theoretical perspectives from across the world; ·  A brand new chapter on Digital Lives, covering a range of topics from filter bubbles and memes to digital inequalities; · The latest approaches emerging from efforts to build an inclusive global sociology, equipped for the challenges of the 21st Century. The book is essential reading for anyone new to studying sociology and is supported by a wide range of podcasts, videos, discussion questions and further reading recommendations at thisissociology.home.blog
