This book is also for my sociology class. I found this book to be informative and easy to read. The author wrote it in such a way that it is very easy to understand and not get lost.

Sociology Matters is the type of book you would want to keep on your bookshelf for future reading and to refer back to.

For a textbook, it wasn't terrible. I came away learning quite a bit more than I knew.
