8-19 Henslin, What is Sociology?

“Sociology is the study of society” or “Sociology is the study of social groups”. Sociology is compared with other social sciences, for an example natural sciences and then it breaks down to the other studies. Zoology, geology, and etc. Sociology is also contrasted with the other social sciences where it talks about the meanings of history, political science, and economics. It talks about human behavior, one example is juvenile delinquency and why they act like that. Reading this chapter made me learn that sociology isn’t just about studies of society, but it is about studies of multiple sciences as well and behaviors.
