New York. AMS Press. 1975. [Reprint]. Stock ID #66222 "Written as a sociology textbook for Freshmen attending American University of Beirut..... As English is a foreign language to all students their difficulty in studying in English has been reduced by supplying an Arabic English vocabulary of some thousand words………..... A University's business is to get students to think. But this is counter to the tradition in which many of the Freshmen have grown up, that the business of the student is to memorize. To help overcome this tradition each chapter ends with suggestions for a variety of 'projects' or units of study, which are intended to stimulate thinking." From the Foreword.
