Introduction to Sociology Scandinavian Sensibilities, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

Sociology is a constantly changing scientific endeavour, adventure and practice that was born with the advent of modernity.

One of the main reasons for the rise of sociology was modern society’s wish to understand itself.

In this introduction to sociology, the authors emphasize the importance and centrality of the idea of the sociological imagination, as it was conceived by sociologist C.

Wright Mills.   This book will enhance and further develop your sociological imagination with a ‘sensibility’ that has its breeding ground in the Scandinavian countries; this is the first comprehensive attempt to write an international/Nordic text book and introductory text to sociology.   This book is aimed primarily at first year students in sociology but will be of interest to anyone who is looking for a comprehensive guide to the exciting field of sociology.
