This new supplemented edition offers instructors and students an exciting new pedagogical tool for Human Societies, the classic textbook now in its 40th year of service to social science. While previous editions have continually updated the text, this supplemented edition is the first to offer a featured section about the future. Teachers and students can now use the long-term conceptual tools introduced in Human Societies to assess future world developments in demography, culture, politics, economies and even on such specific topics as terrorism. New readings from sociologist Jack Goldstone and scientist Joel E. Cohen are coupled with assignments for classroom discussion, paper assignments, and focus groups. The supplemented edition also incorporates redesigned charts, tables, and figures for easier reading.
