I just hope it never goes out of print!\"  \u003cbr\u003e – Chris Adamski-Mietus, \u003cem\u003eWestern Illinois University   \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Many of today’s social problems—poverty, crime, racism, sexism, drug abuse, unequal access to quality health care or education, threats to the environment, over-population—can seem intractable. James A. Crone’s \u003cstrong\u003eHow Can We Solve Our Social Problems?, Third Edition\u003c\/strong\u003e is designed to give students studying these types of social problems a sense of hope. Unlike the standard survey texts that focus heavily on the causes and consequences of problems, this book is devoted to analyzing possible solutions. It maintains a sense of sociological objectivity throughout, and without moralizing, describes what could be done in America and on a global scale, through government policies, private sector initiatives, and the collective actions of citizens, to address even our most pervasive social problems.  \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Contributor to the\u003cem\u003e SAGE Teaching Innovations and Professional Development Award\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e","brand":"SAGE Publications Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54260983693656,"sku":"9781506304830","price":105.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781506304830.jpg?v=1782630942","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/how-can-we-solve-our-social-problems","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
