Conspiracies of social control are prevalent on the internet with little peer reviewed sources. This Sociology Book breaks down various theories into a scientific explanation as to why societies behave the way they do. Underneath the propagated surface of American Consumerism lies a dirty underbelly of oppressed minority and even to include the vast majority in various degrees. By recognizing these issues the educated population can come to make informed decisions on social change.
Be that as it may depending on social class and ideology your agenda may be opposed by the hierarchy of social and religious ideas. This book is an excellent text that when paired with philosophy, psychology, and economics sheds further light on the rules of the “system” and what power you have to change it.

Popular Highlights in this book
Sociology is the study of how individuals behave in groups and how their behaviour is shaped by these groups.Highlighted by 222 Kindle readers- Sociology began to emerge at the end of the 18th century as a response to this transformation, as philosophers and thinkers attempted to understand the nature of modernity and its effects on society.Highlighted by 97 Kindle readers
- A century or so ago sociologists were divided into those who approached the subject on a macro level (looking at society as a whole and the institutions that it is constituted of), and those who approached it on the micro level – focusing on the individual’s experience of living within a society.Highlighted by 80 Kindle readers

The Sociology Book Big Ideas Simply Explained
This book is fantastic!!chris treacyThe Sociology Book Big Ideas Simply Explained
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 15, 2024
There's so much information regarding sociology that requires reading alot of material but this book is so cleverly put together with key information, images and highlighted facts. It engages the reader and I found it very helpful. It's like a bite sized summary of topics with a contents page and a brilliant directory which provides a short summary about key people who have influenced our understanding of social life. It also has a very useful glossary of terms. This book has so much to offer.
