Description: This book was purchased from a liquidation store in my area, where it may have received cosmetic damage from being in a bin with other products, beyond regular wear and tear from use (such as marks or creases). I try to show any imperfections or damage in the photos, so please review all photos prior to purchasing, as all sales are final. There may be tape over tears or sticky residue from previously removed barcode stickers. There are page tears that were also patched with some tape (see photos). The pages are pulling away from the binding, so I recommend handling it with care. Although I make an attempt at catching all the marks or imperfections, please understand I may have missed some and that I, in no way, am trying to hide or misrepresent the book's condition. Note: This book was originally an Amazon Student Rental. ~*~*~*~*~*~ Description from Amazon listing:"In Sociology: Exploring the Architecture of Everyday Life, David Newman shows students how to see the "unfamiliar in the familiar"―to step back and see organization and predictability in their personal experiences. With his approachable writing style and lively personal anecdotes, the author’s goal from the first edition has been the same: to write a textbook that "reads like a real book." Many adopters of this book are fans of Peter Berger′s classic works, which helped introduce the idea of "social constructionism" to sociology. Newman uses the metaphors of "architecture" and "construction," to help students understand that society is not something that exists "out there," independently of themselves; it is a human creation that is planned, maintained, or altered by individuals. Using vivid prose, current examples, and fresh data, the Thirteenth Edition presents a unique and thought-provoking overview of how society is constructed and experienced. Instead of surveying every subfield in sociology, the more streamlined coverage (14 chapters) focuses on the individual and society, the construction of self and society, and social inequality in the context of social structures."
