Why are there pirates in the supermarket? Sociologic: Analysing Everyday Life and Culture is a contemporary introduction to sociology for the modern student. Readers will learn about sociological concepts through examination of a variety of theories and theorists, all the while relating and applying this knowledge to their own experiences of everyday life. Students will relish exploring the world of society and culture through personal narrative, humour, and examples. Editor James Arvanitakis has assembled a stellar author team who collectively give students the tools to analyse how society functions, operates and changes and lay down a challenge to change it for the better.
