The Family: Diversity, Inequality, and Social Change PDF – July 1, 2024 by Philip N. Cohen (Author)

Now the #1 book for the course, Philip Cohen’s The Family is an accessible, data-driven introduction to contemporary sociological thinking on families. Drawing on his expertise as a sociologist, demographer, and teacher, Cohen uses data to elucidate key trends in family life and to show how the story of today’s families is a story of diversity, inequality, and social change. A new Norton Illumine Ebook for the Fourth Edition brings this story to life through embedded Check Your Understanding questions with rich answer-specific feedback, Story Behind the Numbers animations, and new Dynamic Data Figures that help students develop their data literacy skills while learning about the biggest trends in family life.
