N2  - Social Science: An Introduction to the Study of Society approaches social science from a common-sense perspective, rather than from a formalistic social science angle. Readers will see how seemingly diverse disciplines intermingle - anthropology and economics, for example. The goal of the book is to teach students critical thought and problem-solving skills that will allow them to approach social issues in an unbiased manner
