I have never found another textbook that I like as much as your book. I feel like it does the best job of showing students how to incorporate sociology into their own lives of any text I have seen. I also think your book does an excellent job of explaining symbolic interactionism and helping students understand the differences between the three theoretical perspectives." ―Heather Shay, Instructor and Ph.D. Student in Sociology The Seventh Edition of David Newman′s Sociology: Exploring the Architecture of Everyday Life invites students to delve into the fascinating world of sociological thought.
