Social Problems cover

Current and Canadian, Social Problems explores the dynamics and consequences of social problems-such as poverty, sexism, crime, drug abuse, health, war, and terrorism-that impact Canada and the rest of the world. Each problem is examined through a variety of theoretical paradigms before its impact both on individuals and society as a whole is explored.

"This is an accessible text for a first-year social problems course that integrates Canadian content throughout." --Scott Grills, Brandon University "Clear, inclusive and well selected topics for studying social problems. Excellent tools used to aid the student in navigating complex social issues through critical thinking questions, current Canadian cases, tables and graphs ... to make understanding social trends interesting and fun to learn." --Indira Prahst, Langara College
