For courses in Introductory Sociology. Teach students to use evidence and insights to understand sociological phenomena Sociology: Evidence and Insights guides students to analyze society through a combination of data and classic and contemporary sociological perspectives.

By prompting readers to make evidence-based arguments from different sociological perspectives, the text empowers students to bridge the great political and social divides that characterize our world today.
