Textbook of Applied Sociology for Nurses, 3/E for BSc Nursing Students | Comprehensive Guide to Social Structure, Culture, Family, Stratification and Social Problems as per Revised Syllabus

Textbook of Applied Sociology for Nurses, 3rd Edition is a comprehensive, syllabus-aligned sociology text written specifically for BSc Nursing students, as per the revised syllabus. It moves the subject beyond abstract theory, focusing throughout on how social structure, culture, family, stratification and community organization shape health, disease and nursing practice in India. The book is organized into 7 units spanning the full scope of applied sociology for nursing: an introduction to the discipline; social structure (society, community, groups and their classification schemes, class, caste, socialization and social change); culture (meaning, elements, evolution, diversity and its influence on health and disease); family and marriage (including Indian marriage legislation); social stratification (caste, class, race and their influence on health practices); social organization and disorganization (social control, norms, law and a wide sweep of social problems from poverty and illiteracy to substance abuse, child abuse and HIV/AIDS, and the nurse's own role in addressing them); and clinical sociology. Every unit follows a consistent, student-friendly structure - a Chapter Outline, Learning Objectives, a Key Terms box, point-wise explanations supported by figures and flowcharts, a chapter-end "Wrap It Up" summary, and Review Questions split into Short Answer and Long Answer formats - built to make a dense subject easy to study and revise. Who This Book Is For: BSc Nursing Students: written to match the applied sociology component of the revised BSc Nursing syllabus, covering the discipline from foundational concepts through to social organization and clinical sociology. Why This Book Helps: Simplifies a broad, unfamiliar discipline: point-wise, definition-led explanations turn abstract sociological theory into material you can actually study and retain. Structures exam preparation: Short Answer and Long Answer Review Questions close every unit, mirroring university and internal exam patterns so you can revise and self-assess chapter by chapter. Connects sociology directly to nursing practice: each unit ties theory to clinical relevance, covering the influence of culture, caste, class and race on health and disease, and the nurse's role in preventing and addressing social problems. Builds quick recall through visual structure: Chapter Outline, Learning Objectives, Key Terms boxes, concept diagrams and flowcharts, and a chapter-end "Wrap It Up" summary give you a consistent framework to preview, study and revise every unit.
