In this book, Collins instroduces several precepts that most of us have never thought about before. It's guaranteed to challenge some of your most dearly-held beliefs about selfishness, social conhesion, religion, marriage, power and other enigmatic topics.

All in all, a great introduction to sociology. It's written at a college freshman level, which makes it a great beginner's book, but you'll find yourself referring back to it again and again through the years - promise.Two thumbs up for Collins!
