The new edition of this bestselling text emphasizes the themes of social change, the effects of social media on communication, and the intertwining nature of politics and social policy in the United States and worldwide.
Students contemplate such issues as gun control, prevention of military suicides, environmental activism, and whether employers should be allowed to "spy" on their employees.
