Revel(TM) Marriages, Families, and Intimate Relationships A Practical Introduction offers a research-based overview of intimacy, family, and personal happiness that addresses the questions that matter most to today's students. Utilizing an accessible writing style with plenty of examples, colorful facts, and apt quotes, authors Brian Williams, Stacey Sawyer, and Carl Wahlstrom show how to apply three important sociological perspectives -- structural-functional, conflict, and symbolic interaction -- to key topics such as gender, sexuality, marriage, parenting, and uncoupling. The 5th Edition includes fully updated research, as well as expanded coverage of gender identity and gender fluidity, to ensure an up-to-date learning experience.
