Comprehensive coverage of classical and contemporary sociological theory in a single volume Written in an accessible and engaging style, Introduction to Sociological Theory illustrates the relevance and real-life application of a wide range of sociological concepts and analytical ideas. Author Michele Dillon explains and contextualizes conceptual frameworks found in excerpts from original theoretical writings, while helping students appreciate diverse sociological perspectives and think analytically about everyday occurrences beyond the classroom. Introduction to Sociological Theory provides a full complement of effective pedagogical tools, including timelines of significant events, analytical photos, chapter glossaries, end-of-chapter review questions, mini-biographies of important figures, and access to a full-featured companion website with multiple-choice and essay questions, PowerPoint slides, multimedia links, a quotation bank, and other resources. This fourth edition is updated with new contemporary examples and new discussion of current events and their relation to sociological concepts. An entirely new section on posthumanism is accompanied by timely discussion of climate change, COVID-19, social media, post-truth society, the gig economy, ChatGPT, intersectionality, economic and racial inequality, and more. Introduction to Sociological Theory: Theorists, Concepts, and their Applicability to the Twenty-First Century, Fourth Edition, remains an ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate courses on contemporary and classical sociological theory, as well as an excellent supplement for related courses across the social sciences.
