AQA A Level Sociology Book One Including AS Level: Book one

Product Information

This latest edition of the UK's number one best-selling introduction to sociology for AS and A level students is fully revised and updated to fit the AQA AS and A level specifications perfectly.

The attractive, full-colour design and thought-provoking photos stimulate students' interest and engagement. This textbook has been revised by our team of expert authors, who are practising sociologists, teachers and HE experts. This revised and updated edition features: a completely rewritten general introduction and conclusion; all-new introductions to each part, clarifying how each one builds on what came before; an updated set of formative questions at the end of each chapter; a comprehensive glossary of key terms. Every Topic includes activities for individual and group work to check students' understanding and consolidate and deepen their learning.The parts that it does cover are great, good layout and it is easy to get through, but I'm now restricted in my choice of questions I can tackle in my exam tomorrow. The authors are experienced chief and principal examiners, teachers and authors who have written extensively for AS and A level students and teachers. The book comes with a comprehensive, free online resource package, including free student workbooks, online activities and schemes of work.

It includes full coverage of Education with Methods in Context; Culture and Identity; Families and Households; Health; and Work, Poverty and Welfare.

Chapters on 'Families and Households' and 'Education' have been updated, for example, with sections on life-course, demography and social policy, and the chapter on 'Sociological Methods' is unique in the emphasis it gives to the new 'Methods in Context' question.
