Impressions
Perfect for people who want to learn more about sociology!
I was curious about what I will find: a lot of interesting concepts and ideas clearly explained. Food for thoughts about the foundation of sociology, cultural identity and the family dynamics. It's an interesting read if you are at school or just curious about sociology.
A cool one!

I received this book in exchange of a fair and honest review.
Open a book, it's like starting an adventure. You never know in advance whether it will make you travel, cry, laugh or shudder... Ouvrir un livre, c'est débuter une nouvelle aventure qui va vous faire voyager, rire, pleurer ou frisonner...
