Description:

Canadian Society: A Changing Tapestry offers a unique approach to the study of human behaviour and social trends. Designed for secondary school students, the text will help them gain greater awareness and understanding of the social challenges in Canadian society today. The nine units are divided into modular features. Each feature focuses on a key question for discussion. Current Canadian research and case studies and contributions by students themselves make the text particularly relevant to Canadian young people. Graphs and tables provide important data about Canadian social trends. Follow-up activities direct students to explore the concepts in each feature. Photographs, illustrations, and cartoons add visual appeal.
