The Dancer's Gift : Sociology in Life

Sociology students sometimes ask, 'What does sociology have to do with me?' Our answer is 'everything' and this novel, a love story, is a unique way of bringing the sociological concepts and perspective into awareness. The Dancer's Gift: Sociology in Life brilliantly weaves sociological concepts with real life experience. The story of Samantha and Marcel helps students to understand the sociological perspective as it relates to their own social world. ~Tracie Gardner, Lecturer, California State University, Northridge Assigning this well written and innovative novel has helped my students embrace the sociological imagination. The authors certainly provide sociology faculty and students with a wonderful gift. ~Chuck Gallmeier, Professor and Chair, Department of Sociology and Anthropology, Indiana University Northwest
