You must know the basic facts about the world population in order to grasp global health. You
need to know where people live in this world, how the world population is changing based on
the number of babies born per woman, on average, in the world as a whole and in the
different regions. And finally, you must learn how, why, and when the fast population growth in the world will
come to an end during this century. Please look at this video with five video clips where this is explained. And if something is surprising to you, please look twice.

Introduction to Sociology 2e adheres to the scope and sequence of a typical, one-semester introductory sociology course. It offers comprehensive coverage of core concepts, foundational scholars, and emerging theories, which are supported by a wealth of engaging learning materials. The textbook presents detailed section reviews with rich questions, discussions that help students apply their knowledge, and features that draw learners into the discipline in meaningful ways. The second edition retains the book’s conceptual organization, aligning to most courses, and has been significantly updated to reflect the latest research and provide examples most relevant to today’s students. In order to help instructors transition to the revised version, the 2e changes are described within the preface.
