description:
This survey course on Western Philosophy includes primary explanatory text, short original-source readings, videos, and occasional linked external readings. Further links provide supplementary reading/viewing for learners seeking deeper insight on specific topics.

Eight areas of Western philosophic thought are addressed, each in its own unit, along with interactive exercises for reviewing key concepts. Selected sections offer “thought projects” to stimulate awareness of connections between key philosophic concepts and present-day affairs.

Unit 1: Logic involves the study of the human activity of reasoning. Topics include:

  * Basic structure and components of arguments
  * The role of arguments in “doing” philosophy
  * The distinction between and features of deductive reasoning and inductive reasoning
  * Features of “good” arguments
  * Fallacious arguments and claims, with emphasis on informal fallacies encountered in everyday discourse

Unit 2: Epistemology seeks answers to questions about the possibility and nature of human knowledge. How do we know, and what can we know? Topics include:

  * Distinctions between a priori and a posteriori knowledge and analytic and synthetic claims
  * How reasoning and experience characterize rationalism and empiricism, respectively, as main schools of epistemological thought
  * Epistemological positions of specific philosophers including Rene Descartes, Gottfried Leibniz, and John Locke
  * David Hume’s skepticism and how Immanuel Kant attempts to resolve it with synthetic a priori judgments

Unit 3: Philosophy of Science, like the unit on epistemology, concerns how can we know about the natural world, with focus on scientific models, methods, and theories. Topics include:

  * Aristotle’s use of causes to explain the natural world, as a precursor to the modern focus on causal relationships in science
  * Comparison of Sir Francis Bacon’s scientific method of induction and generalization with the hypothetical-deductive method
  * Karl Popper’s recognition of the nature and importance of falsifiability in confirming theories
  * Thomas Kuhn’s work on shifting paradigms that lead to scientific revolutions and the irregular pace of scientific progress

Unit 4: Metaphysics zooms in on the specific subset of the broad field of Metaphysics — the Philosophy of Mind. The focus is on theories and their implications about the nature of a person's reality, as a physical body with a mental life. Topics includes:

  * How Rene Descartes’s method of doubt led him to dualism
  * The nature of materialism (including eliminative materialism)
  * The problem of free will
  * Baron D’Holbach’s determinism, William James’s libertarian indeterminism, and Daniel Dennett’s compatibilism

Unit 5: Ethics introduces moral concepts and distinctions that are central to ethical studies and presents major ethical theories for how human actions are to be evaluated as good or bad, right or wrong. Topics include:

  * The moral relativism-vs-objectivism debate
  * Views of Immanuel Kant and David Hume on moral epistemology - how we can know right from wrong
  * Distinction between intrinsic and instrumental good
  * The deontology of Immanuel Kant
  * Utilitarianism from the perspectives of Jeremy Bentham, John Stuart Mill, and Peter Singer
  * Aristotelian virtue ethics and some modern virtue ethicists who find deontology and utilitarianism inadequate
  * The ethics of care as proposed by Nel Noddings.

Unit 6: Social and Political Philosophy considers the relationship between an individual and the government, and what makes a society good, given issues such as distribution of resources, fairness, justice, human rights, and the responsibilities of government. Topics include:

  * The impact of a philosopher's view of human nature on proposals made about social order
  * Aristotle’s “good life”
  * “Social contract” from diverging viewpoints of Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and John Rawls
  * Contrasting the values underlying liberalism and socialism
  * Influences of John Locke and John Stuart Mill on present-day liberalism and democracy

Unit 7: Philosophy of Religion looks first at views on the nature of religion held by both late 19th-century and contemporary philosophers. Topics include:

  * Religion as personal/private experience exemplified by William James’s experience of the divine and by Karen Armstrong's personal summons to action serving others
  * Emile Durkheim’s characterization of religion as a group/communal experience related to sacred objects
  * Kwame Anthony Appiah’s view that generalizations about religion are risky

Then historical arguments and objections to them for the existence of God are examined along with the problem of evil. Topics include:

  * Ontological argument of Saint Anselm, Cosmological argument of Saint Thomas Aquinas, and Teleological argument as renewed by William Paley
  * Moral arguments for the existence of God from Saint Thomas Aquinas and Immanuel Kant
  * The nature of God and the problem of evil
  * John Hick’s theodicy whereby evil functions as a means for spiritual development

Unit 8: Aesthetics presents some dominant theories on the nature of beauty and art, the character of the aesthetic experience, and aesthetic judgement in art criticism. Topics include:

  * The distinction between objectivism and subjectivism in theories of beauty
  * The problem for Beauty as an ideal with pure subjectivism
  * Denis Dutton’s evolutionary theory of beauty
  * Representationalism, formalism, functionalism, or emotionalism as an essential characteristic of art
  * Family-resemblance (cluster) theory for denying any specific common property for art
  * Immanuel Kant's “disinterested interest” as a central principle of contemporary aesthetics and attitudes for art criticism
  * Representationalism, formalism, functionalism, and emotionalism as tools for judging art

Voices On The Economy (VOTE) is a refreshing change from the vast majority of economic textbooks. Instead of trying to sell you on the liberal, conservative, or radical economic approach, the book offers all three, side by side, without any biases. It helps you sort through the noise and rhetoric to compare and contrast different ideas for solving our urgent economic problems. Twelve issues are covered in depth, including healthcare, the environment, housing, product safety, livelihood, market power, international trade, economic stability, agriculture, retirement security, income distribution, and the federal budget. Whether you’re passionate about economics or have never taken an economics class before, Voices On The Economy will engage and entertain you. It’s filled with stories, exercises, and lively activities that teach you how to become fluent in multiple perspectives so you can be a respectful listener, passionate advocate, and intelligent debater. By understanding all the ideas on the table, you might be inspired to find a completely new way to think about economics. You might be our next great economic thinker.

Er wurde bewusst als Online-Kurs konzipiert, sodass die Studierenden auch von zu Hause aus am Material arbeiten können. Er kann durch Tutor/innen begleitet werden, dies ist jedoch nicht zwingend erforderlich. Studierende im Bachelor erwerben in diesem Kurs Kenntnisse in der Programmiersprache R und in der eigenständigen Analyse von Daten. In Verbindung mit den theoretischen Hintergründen aus den Statistikvorlesungen können sie somit sowohl selbstständig Analysen vornehmen, als auch gegebene Analysen kritisch durch Replikation hinterfragen. In der Konsequenz können die Studierenden direkt und anwendungsorientiert Fragen der deskriptiven und Inferenzstatistik beantworten. In der praktischen Bearbeitung und eigenständigen Analyse politikwissenschaftlicher Datensätze sollen die Studierenden ein besseres Verständnis der Statistik und ihres praktischen Nutzens erwerben.

description:
The Preceptor Education Program, 3rd Edition, is an online interprofessional program that consists of eight 30-minute interactive learning modules. The modules include downloadable resources, learning exercises and video case scenario. Learning is self-directed with modules completed in any order. A certificate of completion is offered. Module 1 Orientation and Preparation The goal of the placement is focused on the learning needs and preparation of the student for professional practice. A model of Professional Practice Placements is used to reveal how and by whom a placement experience is created and unfolds. Learners will review the responsibilities for each ‘who’ of a placement experience. Module 2 Anti-Oppressive Practices The antioppressive practice module will increase preceptors’ and students’ understanding of the importance of anti-oppressive practices. Learners will critically examine their positionality and the influence it has on their relationships with others and will develop goals to continue in their journey of understanding.
Module 3 Learning Objectives This module will outline the steps required to write a well-developed learning objective while considering the strategies, supports, resources and proof required for successful achievement. Within this module, experiential opportunities support learners in writing their own clinical placement learning objectives. Module 4 Clinical Reasoning Clinical reasoning is a critical component of health professional practice. Students benefit from deliberate guidance from teachers and preceptors across their education program. This module examines clinical reasoning and applies the steps through case studies. Module 5 Reflective Practice This interactive learning module will begin you on the journey of incorporating reflection into
your professional practice and becoming a reflective practitioner. Engaging in various forms of reflection can enhance and deepen learning within preceptorships. Module 6 Feedback and Evaluation Learners will explore both the process of feedback and a format for outcome evaluations. Peer coaching is briefly explained. Key attributes of supportive learning environments will be reviewed. Understanding the student who is not meeting course expectations is included. Module 7 Successfully Navigating Conflicts This interactive learning module will help preceptors and students understand conflicts within preceptor-student relationships and develop strategies to recognize, prevent and manage conflicts. As well, this module will discuss
lateral violence such as bullying and verbal abuse and how to manage these using assertive communication skills. Module 8 The Virtual Placement Professional practice placements that take place in an online/virtual setting is unique. A framework is introduced to integrate an understanding of technology, communication, collaboration, and professionalism and how they can be applied to prepare, practice and evaluate in these settings.

Financial Strategy for Public Managers

description: Financial Strategy for Public Managers is a new generation textbook for financial management in the public sector. It offers a thorough, applied, and concise introduction to the essential financial concepts and analytical tools that today’s effective public servants need to know. It starts “at the beginning” and assumes no prior knowledge or experience in financial management. Throughout the text, Kioko and Marlowe emphasize how financial information can and should inform every aspect of public sector strategy, from routine procurement decisions to budget preparation to program design to major new policy initiatives. They draw upon dozens of real-world examples, cases, and applied problems to bring that relationship between information and strategy to life. Unlike other public financial management texts, the authors also integrate foundational principles across the government, non-profit, and “hybrid/for-benefit” sectors. Coverage includes basic principles of accounting and financial reporting, preparing and analyzing financial statements, cost analysis, and the process and politics of budget preparation. The text also includes several large case studies appropriate for class discussion and/or graded assignments.

Aesthetic Theory and Practice offers fresh perspectives on canonical and emerging topics in aesthetics, and also brings attention to a number of culturally sensitive topics that are customarily silenced in introductions to philosophical aesthetics. The papers are heterogeneous in terms of length and degrees of difficulty, inviting the reader into the study of contemporary aesthetics, which spans a lifetime.

This collection is co-created thanks to contributions from the Americas, Japan and China, Australia and Austria, England and France, Italy, Germany and Ethiopia. It is not surprising, therefore, that all eleven chapters adopt active critical and often multicultural perspectives, so as to evaluate aesthetics in relation to the tradition, its cultural potential, and the messy, geopolitical circumstances of the 21st century.

Introduction to Philosophy: Epistemology engages first-time philosophy readers on a guided tour through the core concepts, questions, methods, arguments, and theories of epistemology—the branch of philosophy devoted to the study of knowledge. After a brief overview of the field, the book progresses systematically while placing central ideas and thinkers in historical and contemporary context.

The chapters cover the analysis of knowledge, the nature of epistemic justification, rationalism vs. empiricism, skepticism, the value of knowledge, the ethics of belief, Bayesian epistemology, social epistemology, and feminist epistemologies. Along the way, instructors and students will encounter a wealth of additional resources and tools:

  * Chapter learning outcomes
  * Key terms
  * Images of philosophers and related art
  * Useful diagrams and tables
  * Boxes containing excerpts and other supplementary material
  * Questions for reflection
  * Suggestions for further reading
  * A glossary

For an undergraduate survey epistemology course, Introduction to Philosophy: Epistemology is ideal when used as a main text paired with primary sources and scholarly articles. For an introductory philosophy course, select book chapters are best used in combination with chapters from other books in the Introduction to Philosophy series.

We often make judgments about good and bad, right and wrong. Philosophical ethics is the critical examination of these and other concepts central to how we evaluate our own and each others' behavior and choices.

This text examines some of the main threads of discussion on these topics that have developed over the last couple of millenia, mostly within the Western cultural tradition. It considers basic questions about moral and ethical judgment: Is there such a thing as something that is really right or really wrong independent of time, place and perspective? What is the relationship between religion and ethics? How can we reconcile self-interest and ethics? Is it ever acceptable to harm one person in order to help others? What do recent discussions in evolutionary biology or have to say about human moral systems? What is the relation between gender and ethics? The authors invite you to participate in their exploration of these and many other questions in philosophical ethics.

Introduction to Philosophy: Philosophy of Mind (edited by Heather Salazar) surveys the central themes in philosophy of mind and places them in a historical and contemporary context intended to engage first-time readers in the field. It focuses on debates about the status and character of the mind and its seemingly subjective nature in an apparently more objective world.

Written by experts and emerging researchers in their subject areas, each chapter brings clarity to complex material and involves the reader through a wealth of examples. Many chapters include applications of the concepts to film and literature that will stimulate readers to firmly grasp the significance of the philosophy of mind. Subjects covered are how the mind fits into the material world and how to analyze its properties. In that vein, substance dualism, materialism, behaviorism, functionalism, and property dualism are all explored.

In addition, it includes insightful contributions on how to explain seemingly subjective feelings, the mystery of consciousness, conceptual understanding of the world outside of the mind, and free will. The book is designed to be used alone or alongside a reader of historical and contemporary original sources.

Where did the universe come from? Is life a result of chance, or design? If God is loving and all-powerful, why does evil still exist? Is religious belief just a byproduct of undirected evolutionary processes? Or did God make sure humans would evolve in such a way as to believe? Are philosophers closed-minded about religion? And why is so much of philosophy of religion about God—but not about gods?

Introduction to Philosophy: Philosophy of Religion introduces students to some of the major traditional arguments for and against the existence of God. It also includes discussions of some less well-known, but thought-provoking arguments for the existence of God, and one of the most important new challenges to religious belief from the Cognitive Science of Religion. An introductory chapter traces the deep interconnections between philosophy and religion throughout Western history, and a final chapter considers what place there is for non-Western and non-monotheistic religions within contemporary philosophy of religion.

Whatever your religious beliefs—or lack of beliefs—we think you will find many of the arguments in this book fascinating to think about, and useful starting points for deeper philosophical discussions.

The Open Anthology of Earlier American Literature was initially created by Robin deRosa at Plymouth State University. Working with students, they collected public domain texts, edited them as necessary and created introductions for each to form the beginnings of a new, definitive anthology of Early American Literature.

The project is now in the hands of Tim Robbins and the Rebus Community, who will expand the texts covered and source introductions to each section. We are looking for collaborators to help us develop a more comprehensive series of texts and build the book out to meet the needs of Early American students and scholars.

This textbook takes a distinctly socio-historical approach to introducing Early American literature. The anthology will allow students to engage with literature in exciting and dynamic ways. We currently looking for authors to write introductions for any remaining sections, and for individuals to locate public domain texts. If you'd like to participate, please let us know in the Rebus Projects platform.

description: Open education is at a critical juncture. It has moved on from its northern roots and is increasingly being challenged from its own periphery. At the same time, it finds itself marginalised and under threat in an educational sector infiltrated by corporate interests. However, rather than bunkering down, becoming blinkered or even complacent, the editors of this volume believe that the voices from the periphery should be amplified. This book represents a starting point towards curating and centering marginal voices and non-dominant epistemic stances in open education, an attempt at critical pluriversalism. It is a curated collection of 38 blog posts, lectures, talks, articles, and other informal works contributed by 43 diverse authors/co-authors and published since 2013. Each of these contributions offers a perspective on open education that can be considered marginal and that challenges the dominant hegemony.

description: This book was created entirely by students in a Fall 2016 section of First-Year Seminar at Plymouth State University.  We called the course “OpenSem” because it was organized around a core set of open pedagogical practices. The theme for the course was “Whose Course Is This, Anyway?”  Students created all learning outcomes, assignments, course policies, and grading processes. Students curated content and built the syllabus as the course unfolded.  Students published all work to their own public ePorts, licensed that work openly, and then leant a sampling of that work to this collection for easy sharing. You can check out our hashtag on Twitter at #opensem, and view the syllabus at http://robinderosa.net/opensem/. This collection is licensed CCBY, and we hope other courses will take this as a starting point, improve and add to this work, and help students to grow a truly learner-developed first-year college curricula!

Welcome to Programming Fundamentals – A Modular Structured Approach, 2nd Edition! The original content for this book was created by Kenneth Leroy Busbee and written specifically for his course based on C++. The goal for this second edition is to make it programming-language neutral, so that it may serve as an introductory programming textbook for students using any of a variety of programming languages, including C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Python, and Swift. Other languages will be considered upon request.
Programming concepts are introduced generically, with logic demonstrated in pseudocode and flowchart form, followed by examples for different programming languages. Emphasis is placed on a modular, structured approach that supports reuse, maintenance, and self-documenting code.
As you begin to review this edition, please keep the audience in mind. If something is missing, think about whether that concept applies to programming in general or only to certain programming languages, and whether it is a fundamental, first-semester programming concept or something better addressed in a more advanced textbook.

description: This collection of short narratives provides insight into the process of creating open textbooks and other open educational resources (OER). Over the first months of 2019, Donna Langille (Rebus's then practicum student) interviewed project leads who have used the Rebus Community publishing platform since 2017. Her write-ups of these interviews focus on the benefits, challenges, and vision of publishing openly. The projects range broadly—from conducting literature reviews for nursing students to building a student-driven anthology of Spanish literature, from opening up LGTBQ+ studies to an international readership to designing a multimedia guide for learning sight reading for guitar. Unifying these diverse publications is the common practice of making publishing into a community-driven act, and throughout, readers will discover that open publishing comes with many different rewards. Indeed, what becomes clear is that making books also makes community—a community that is in the process of reinventing how knowledge is made, shared, and reimagined.

Sight-Reading for Guitar

description:
Sight-Reading for Guitar: The Keep Going Method Book and Video Series teaches guitar players from all musical backgrounds to understand, read and play modern staff notation in real time. The Keep Going Method is designed to impart the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed for sight-reading with efficiency, fun and encouragement. The skill of sight-reading is a difficult to develop, primarily because it is traditionally taught inefficiently. Further, students encounter high levels of emotional discomfort in the beginning stages of skill acquisition. The method in this book is designed to impart the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed for sight-reading with efficiency, clarity and encouragement. All types of guitars apply: electric, steel-string and nylon-string.

Each unit contains brief descriptions of musical symbols, play-along duet exercises and compositions, encouragement and methods for self-assessment. The series contains 20 units that start at the beginner level and progress to the intermediate/advanced level. At the completion of the series guitarists will be able to sight-read most rhythms, pitches and other notations relevant to guitar notation. The series also features 30 original duet compositions, of varying styles, created exclusively for this series!

The Rebus Guide to Publishing Open Textbooks (So Far) is for anyone thinking about starting an open textbook project. It starts at the beginning of the process, with chapters on project scoping and building a team, and then moves on to content creation and editing, getting feedback and reviews, coordinating release and adoptions, and sustaining the book’s community.

The book is also a work-in-progress, an effort that will evolve and grow over time. Through conversations, use, new writers’ and editors’ contributions, and ongoing reflection and revision, it will reflect our changing perspectives on how and why we make open textbooks. Initiated by Rebus team members Zoe Wake Hyde and Apurva Ashok, the text is the result of innumerable conversations and exchanges within the Rebus Community, representing a wide range of collective knowledge and experience.

Please note those two little words in parentheses in the title: there are plenty of new learnings, knowledge, and reflexive revisions to come! Everyone is therefore invited to become a part of the project and follow its progress, as well as leave feedback, comments, and recommendations for corrections on the Rebus Community platform.

Atoms First / OpenStax

description:
Chemistry: Atoms First 2e is a peer-reviewed, openly licensed introductory textbook produced through a collaborative publishing partnership between OpenStax and the University of Connecticut and UConn Undergraduate Student Government Association.This text is an atoms-first adaptation of OpenStax Chemistry 2e. The intention of “atoms-first” involves a few basic principles: first, it introduces atomic and molecular structure much earlier than the traditional approach, and it threads these themes through subsequent chapters. This approach may be chosen as a way to delay the introduction of material such as stoichiometry that students traditionally find abstract and difficult, thereby allowing students time to acclimate their study skills to chemistry. Additionally, it gives students a basis for understanding the application of quantitative principles to the chemistry that underlies the entire course. It also aims to center the study of chemistry on the atomic foundation that many will expand upon in a later course covering organic chemistry, easing that transition when the time arrives.

The second edition has been revised to incorporate clearer, more current, and more dynamic explanations, while maintaining the same organization as the first edition. Substantial improvements have been made in the figures, illustrations, and example exercises that support the text narrative. The first edition of Chemistry: Atoms First by OpenStax is available in web view here.

Welcome to Leadership in Early Care and Education! We hope you find this text helpful, thought provoking, and affirming. We created this text to support learning in a couple of different. This text can be used from start to finish, or as modules that you (the instructor or the student) select based on your learning outcomes.

We created this text with these principles in mind:

  * Anyone can be a leader at any time. Leadership is not title specific and the field of Early Care and Education needs leaders from diverse background, experiences, and expertise.
  * Leadership has an inherent set of responsibilities and leaders need to understand what those are and how to navigate them.
  * Diversity, equity, and inclusion are important topics and leadership should be grounded in them.
  * Reflection is a key part of professional practice and should be encouraged and supported at all levels.
  * It is important to represent a variety of contexts, individuals and scenarios.
  * White space is important. How we interact with learning materials is important. We hope you will find our design effective.

Leaders in Early Childhood Education and K-12 Education exist at levels and take many different paths to leadership. Some receive formal education and while many find themselves in leadership roles because they have the most tenure. Most become leaders through a combination of education and experience – and all are woefully underprepared for what they experience.

These modules were designed to empower leaders at all levels and in any educational context. We realize that is a lofty goal and we felt it was important to aspire to ensure that all leaders could see themselves in the scenarios and strategies we share. We have been in leadership roles and know how challenging and complex leadership in education can be.

Financial Empowerment

keywords:

Personal finance

description:
The purpose of the Financial Empowerment adaptation is to take an accessible, student-focused, personal finance textbook from the United States and make it affordable and relevant for students in Canada. While many mainstream Canadian personal finance texts provide excellent content in terms of the mechanics of personal finance, they are expensive and not always relevant to the values and experiences of students in the classroom. Many mainstream personal finance texts fall short for Indigenous Canadians and non-Indigenous Canadians alike because they do not speak to the varied backgrounds, knowledge systems, and experiences of their readers. This textbook was adapted in order to motivate a broad range of students to learn about personal finance.

The specific goals of this textbook are:

  1. to help students build a solid understanding of personal finance in order to achieve financial literacy and financial success by providing them with the skills and knowledge necessary to navigate short and long-term financial change;
  2. to tailor the content for a Canadian audience by providing Indigenous and non-Indigenous perspectives on personal finance and financial planning using examples and information from the Canadian financial system and economy;
  3. to increase accessibility to financial education resources for students and general public alike regardless of where they live or study;
  4. to customize the content for Indigenous students in Canada and address student needs for practical and theoretical knowledge on financial decision-making and financial risk assessment; and
  5. to connect financial literacy with Indigenous Knowledge and history by threading Indigenous perspectives and interviews with Elders and other community leaders throughout the textbook.

description: Interpersonal Communication: A Mindful Approach to Relationships helps readers examine their own one-on-one communicative interactions using a mindfulness lens. The writing team of Jason S. Wrench, Narissra M. Punyanunt-Carter, and Katherine Thweatt incorporates the latest communication theory and research to help students navigate everyday interpersonal interactions. The 14 chapters in this book cover topics typically taught in an undergraduate interpersonal communication course: family interactions, interpersonal dynamics, language, listening, nonverbal communication, and romantic relationships, as well as exploring emerging areas such as self-compassion, body positivity, friendships, and “the dark side”. The writing takes on a purposefully informal tone to engage readers. Each chapter is broken into different sections that have unique instructional outcomes, key takeaways, and exercises, and concludes with real-world case studies and sample quiz questions. Also included is an extensive glossary with over 350 definitions.

Introduction to Psychology

keywords: Psychology psychology general

de: Psychologie

en: Psychology

uk: Право, економіка та суспільні науки

description:
This book is designed to help students organize their thinking about psychology at a conceptual level. The focus on behaviour and empiricism has produced a text that is better organized, has fewer chapters, and is somewhat shorter than many of the leading books. The beginning of each section includes learning objectives; throughout the body of each section are key terms in bold followed by their definitions in italics; key takeaways, and exercises and critical thinking activities end each section.

To facilitate learning outcomes, three techniques have been used:

  1. Chapter openers.The focus on behaviour begins each chapter with an opener showcasing an interesting real-world example of people who are dealing with behavioural questions and who can use psychology to help them answer those questions. The opener is designed to draw the student into the chapter and create an interest in learning about the topic.
  2. Psychology in everyday life.Each chapter contains one or two features designed to link the principles from the chapter to real-world applications in business, environment, health, law, learning, and other relevant domains. For instance, the application in Chapter 7 “Growing and Developing” — “What Makes a Good Parent?” — applies the concepts of parenting styles in a mini handbook about parenting, and the application in Chapter 4, “Brains, Bodies, and Behaviour,” is about the difficulties that left-handed people face performing everyday tasks in a right-handed world.
  3. Research focus.Empiricism is also emphasized throughout, but without making it a distraction from the main story line. Each chapter presents one or more close-ups on research — well-articulated and specific examples of research within the content area, each including a summary of the hypotheses, methods, results, and interpretations. This feature provides a continuous thread that reminds students of the importance of empirical research. The research foci also emphasize the fact that findings are not always predictable ahead of time (dispelling the myth of hindsight bias) and help students understand how research really works.

In short, the authors have attempted to bring psychology to life in ways that really matter to students while, at the same time, maintaining content and conceptual rigor, with a strong focus on the fundamental principles of empiricism and the scientific method.

Introduction to Sociology adheres to the scope and sequence of a typical introductory sociology course. In addition to comprehensive coverage of core concepts, foundational scholars, and emerging theories, we have incorporated section reviews with engaging questions, discussions that help students apply the sociological imagination, and features that draw learners into the discipline in meaningful ways. Although this text can be modified and reorganized to suit your needs, the standard version is organized so that topics are introduced conceptually, with relevant, everyday experiences.

For the student, this book is based on the teaching and research experience of numerous sociologists. In today’s global socially networked world, the topic of Sociology is more relevant than ever before. We hope that through this book, students will learn how simple, everyday human actions and interactions can change the world. In this book, you will find applications of Sociology concepts that are relevant, current, and balanced.

For instructors, this text is intended for a one-semester introductory course and includes these features:

  * Sociological Research: Highlights specific current and relevant research studies.
  * Sociology in the Real World: Ties chapter content to student life and discusses sociology in terms of the everyday.
  * Big Picture: Features present sociological concepts at a national or international level.
  * Case Study: Describes real-life people whose experiences relate to chapter content.
  * Social Policy and Debate: Discusses political issues that relate to chapter content.
  * Section Summaries distill the information in each section for both students and instructors down to key, concise points addressed in the section.
  * Key Terms are bold and are followed by a definition in context. Definitions of key terms are also listed in the Key Terms, which appears at the end of each chapter.
  * Section Quizzes provide opportunities to apply and test the information students learn throughout each section. Both multiple-choice and short-response questions feature a variety of question types and range of difficulty.
  * Further Research: This feature helps students further explore the section topic and offers related research topics that could be explored.
