Exploring Sociology  is a "students first" resource written with millennial students in mind, and with their help.

 

Bruce Ravelli and Michelle Webber, the authors of Exploring Sociology, believe that theory provides the foundation for sociology and that students need to explore both classical and modern theory to grasp the sociological endeavour fully. Accordingly, this text provides the most comprehensive overview of classical and modern social theories of any textbook. This is the first mainstream introductory sociology text to devote an entire chapter to contemporary theory, and the first to integrate postmodern and post-structural theoretical insights meaningfully throughout the book. 

Through its distinctive approach to the field, its readability, and its relevance to students’ lives, Exploring Sociology: A Canadian Perspective,Third Edition, helps professors develop the sociological imagination in their students by encouraging them to see sociology through multiple lenses. Topics are presented in ways that allow students to engage with the material and to exercise their sociological imaginations.
