Document Summary

Here is a technical definition of sociology: sociology is the scientific study of interactions and relations among human beings. I hope the word scientific caught your attention. Including that word in the definition is a reminder that sociologists try to be very careful about how they find answers to their questions. Therefore, as much as possible, they strive to be systematic in gathering data. The goal of this book, and this course, is not so much to introduce you to new worlds as it is to inspire you to take a long hard look at familiar ones. And, i promise you, the reward for doing that will be much greater than the simple gratification of intellectual curiosity. The practical value of taking a sociology course is that what you learn, by definition, never will be irrelevant to your life present and future.
