The sixth Canadian edition has been fully updated to reflect the most recent developments in sociology both in Canada and around the globe. This text strengthens the foundation laid in the previous Canadian editions, providing compelling and relevant topics and examples that resonate with students and that are consistently interpreted through the lens of four theoretical perspectives. To navigate successfully through our changing world requires a perspective that takes into account contextual factors, as well as individual factors, one that is able to link our individual experiences to the broader social processes occurring around us.
