The new 2022 edition of the most widely taught deviance text brings us into a changing political era. Updated throughout, this edition includes a new chapter on political deviance since 2016 and coverage of the Covid-19 pandemic, Black Lives Matter, sexual harassment, the social construction of immigration, and other topics. There is a new chapter entitled Gay Sex: Exiting from Deviance, which presents case studies that look into how a sexual preference that was almost universally condemned and considered a pathology became more or less a neutral alternate lifestyle, and a new section on logic, reasoning, and verification of facts is an important new feature for student critical thinking as it addresses the recent politics of truth and lying, including QAnon.
