This is a great compilation. The readings cover a wide variety of family, social, and intersectional issues with well-researched data and, for the most part, very readable voices. It's been my favorite "textbook" as an undergrad.
The book came on time and in the good conditions. The renter is legit. This text was part of the Sociology course of family structure. Found it interesting and somewhat controversial.Happy Holidays!
Not brand new; but in extremely good condition. Got it in the mail real fast. Besides the mandatory reading of multiple chapters for my Sociology course, it actually has some real great contributing excerts and interviews contained in each section.
This book reads more like a novel. It contains short sections of about 10 pages. I found it fifficult to locate information that I previously read.
This book was used in a class. Each chapter described a different family type situation and validated "different" types of families.
The binding was a little torn, but nothing a little tape couldn't fix. Many very very interesting reads!
Book came exactly as descried and arrived extremely fast.
Good book for Sociology on Family.
