Sociology and Modern Social Problems is a comprehensive book written by Charles A. Ellwood that explores the relationship between sociology and contemporary social issues. The book covers a range of topics, including poverty, crime, inequality, race, gender, and education, and examines how these issues are shaped by social structures and institutions.The book begins with an introduction to the field of sociology and its key concepts, including social structure, culture, and socialization. It then delves into specific social problems and their causes, using sociological theories and research to explain why these issues exist and how they can be addressed.Throughout the book, Ellwood emphasizes the importance of using a sociological perspective to understand social problems, arguing that this approach can help us to develop more effective solutions. He also discusses the role of social movements and activism in addressing social problems, highlighting the ways in which collective action can bring about social change.Overall, Sociology and Modern Social Problems is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding and addressing contemporary social issues. It provides a clear and accessible introduction to the field of sociology and its relevance to the challenges facing modern society.It is evident that if we assume Darwin's theory of descent in sociology we must look for the beginnings of many peculiarly human things in the animal world below man. Human institutions, according to this theory, could not be supposed to have an independent origin, or human society in any of its forms to be a fact by itself, but rather all human things are connected with the whole world of animal life below man. Thus if we are, according to this theory, to look for the origin of the family, we should have to turn first of all to the habits of animals nearest man.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
