This Second Edition of Social Problems: Community, Policy and Social Action offers an integrated approach to topics of race, class, and gender, with an emphasis on critical thinking and active learning throughout the book. Social problems are approached from four theoretical perspectives (conflict, social interactionist, functionalist and feminist perspectives), any yet also humanized, with voices of experience (those suffering the social problem, i.e. the poverty stricken) and voices of change (social workers, policy makers and so on). A Student Study Site at www.pineforge.com/leonguerrero2study includes an extensive set of materials from links to NPR radio programs to service learning resources to journal articles. Self-quizzes and E-flashcards help students master the basic terminology. Links for Putting It Together and end-of-chapter exercises are also provided.
