Book Reviews of Social Problems (11th Edition) (Text Only)

Book Review: Most biased text I've ever read
Summary: 1 Stars

This is literally the most biased "text" I've read. The authors are clearly liberal, bordering on socialist. It constantly portrays half-truths or outright lies. It is shockingly bad.

The 11th edition seems to have added even more bias to the mix. Here's a sample of what has been updated.

"The Iraq war continues, ravaging that country, increasing the terrorist threat, and dividing the people in the united states." (Are you serious? That is what they think passes for objective)

There are too many examples to list, but just know that this book is nothing more than propaganda designed to turn the next generation into anti-capitalist activists. It should be used as an example of bias in higher education.

Summary of Social Problems (11th Edition) (Text Only)

Taking a conflict approach, Eitzen and Baca Zinn focus on the underlying features of the social world in an effort to help students to understand today's social problems.
