This thoroughly revised second edition has been restructured to clearly emphasize key topics including:

  • Essentialism
  • Functionalism
  • Authority
  • Domination. 

All ideas and theories are clearly illustrated, with new and engaging examples and case studies throughout, making this the ideal textbook for students approaching the subject area for the first time.
