He also focuses on such issues as introducing technology in the classroom. He holds a Ph.D. in sociology from the University of Washington in Seattle, with B.S. and M.S. degrees from Brigham Young University.
Review:
"The critical thinking questions are excellent. They take the student and put them personally into the concept that is being discussed in the chapter, thus, enabling the student to relate to the concept and understand it. This technique also makes the students learning more interesting and exciting."
"The pedagogical features used in this text are excellent. Both students and instructors will no doubt benefit from them."
"Environmental issues are becoming more and more important - salmon recovery, water shortages, pollution. I like the way the Brinkerhoff text begins to incorporate these issues into the chapters."
"Socialization is presented in a manner that clearly separates it from the more dominant psychological theories. This should enable the student to better understand the differences between the two disciplines."
