Evaluates important studies on major issues, concepts, and theories rather than providing exhaustive literature reviews
Teaches students to become educated consumers of research findings, rather than passive or uncritical recipients

Ancillaries

A Student Study Site with chapter summaries, multiple-choice quizzes, flashcards for glossary items, an annotated list of relevant Web sites, informational QuickTime movies, and SAGE journal articles.
A password protected Instructors Resource Site includes PowerPoint slides and test questions.
