With Terrible Magnificent Sociology, Lisa Wade set out to reinvent the introductory sociology textbook by writing a compulsively readable book that uses memorable stories to sell students on the discipline. Her fresh, streamlined approach has been enthusiastically received by instructors and students alike for its emphasis on lively stories, focus on intersectionality, and integrated coverage of sociological theory and methods. Throughout the book, Wade introduces readers to a more inclusive canon that emphasizes the contributions of women, immigrants, and sociologists of color. A new Norton Illumine Ebook helps students understand the sociology behind the stories with author videos, "How Do We Know?” interactives on sociological research methods, and Check Your Understanding questions with answer-specific feedback.
