Deviant Behavior
«
"Humphrey and Schmalleger’s Deviant Behavior not only introduces students to what the essence of deviance is, it also inspires student curiosity about the structure, processes, and dynamics associated across a wide range of deviant forms, from high-consensus, violent forms of deviant behavior to lower-consensus extreme forms of everyday behaviors. Deviant Behavior presents a conceptual overview of the nature of deviance, complete with relevant theoretical explanations, and provides a survey of deviant behavior forms pertinent to a 21st-century experience."
» Michael D. Collins
What makes behavior deviant, and who gets to decide what deviance is? Deviant Behavior seeks to answer these questions and more. This compelling new text covers the social forces that shape deviance, the motivations and consequences of deviant behaviors, and how our definition of deviance changes over time. Les mer
