Uncovering Social Life: Critical Perspectives from Sociology (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781138934153)

Uncovering Social Life: Critical Perspectives from Sociology provides a clear and engaging account of social life. This book identifies how sociology helps us understand the problems associated with social order and change before focusing on some of the most important institutional transformations to have occurred in:

• bodies and health;
• sex, gender and sexuality;
• employment;
• finance;
• the Internet and new social media;
• technology and artificial intelligence;
• religion;
• governance and terrorism.

Written by two respected scholars, it provides a clear and compelling example of the sociological imagination in action and, as such, offers an important teaching and study resource.
