(1) An Introduction to Sociology: For Social Workers and General Readers (2) The Social Worker

Abstract

(1)“THE ‘unit’ in sociology is the group.” Throughout this “Introduction to Sociology” the author holds fast to this basal conception, and amid his many excursions into varied fields of study he is constantly turning back to the “group,” unfolding its many implications, and by its means striking a path “through the jungle of social questions.”
