2020 SAGE Keith Roberts Teaching Innovations Award—enabling graduate
students and early career faculty to attend the annual ASA
pre-conference teaching and learning workshop. Discover Sociology:
Core Concepts explores sociology as a discipline of curious minds,
with the theoretical, conceptual, and empirical tools needed to
understand, analyze, and even change the world. It is adapted from
Discover Sociology, Fourth Edition and offers in-depth coverage of 12
high-priority topics that are at the core of almost all introductory
sociology courses. The Second Edition of Core Concepts maintains its
reader-friendly narrative and the hallmark themes of the parent book,
including the unequal distribution of power in society ("Inequality
Matters"), the sociological imagination ("Private Lives, Public
Issues"), career skills ("What Can I Do With a Sociology Degree?") and
civil discourse ("Discover and Debate"). In response to reader’s
requests, this edition features expanded coverage of issues such as
intersectionality, popular culture, and changes in the contemporary
population of college students in the U.S. Additionally, updated
social indicators bring in the latest data available from the U.S.
Census Bureau, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, and the Pew Research Center, among others, to
ensure that discussions and figures remain timely. This title is
accompanied by a complete teaching and learning package. Digital
