For courses in Social Problems An inquiry-based approach to Social Problems that sparks the sociological imagination Organized around the big questions surrounding contemporary social problems, Revel(TM) Social Problems: The Sociology Project shows students how to analyze the world's most pressing social problems, inspiring them to consider the causes and consequences of these problems and to search for possible solutions. Each chapter is authored by one or more faculty members from the NYU Sociology Department who write and teach in a specific subfield. This collaboration offers a unique approach that draws on the contemporary research and collective wisdom of a large, successful sociology department to reveal how individuals' lives and social problems are shaped by the diverse contexts in which we live and act. Rather than simply giving answers, the authors identify the kinds of questions that sociological researchers ask and introduce students to ways of thinking about how to answer those questions. This inspires the sociological imagination and instills in each reader a determination to question the world around us. Revel is Pearson's newest way of delivering our respected content.
