Changing America: Studies In Contemporary Society is a book authored by Edward Alsworth Ross that explores the social, economic, and political changes that have taken place in America since the early 20th century. The book is a collection of essays and articles that Ross wrote over the course of his career as a sociologist and political economist. The book is divided into four parts, each of which focuses on a different aspect of American society. The first part examines the changes in the American economy, including the rise of big business, the growth of the middle class, and the impact of technological advancements on the workforce. The second part looks at the changing nature of American politics, including the rise of political machines, the emergence of new political ideologies, and the role of the media in shaping public opinion. The third part of the book examines the changing social landscape of America, including the impact of immigration, urbanization, and the changing roles of women and minorities in society. Finally, the fourth part of the book explores the cultural changes that have taken place in America, including the rise of consumer culture, the impact of mass media on popular culture, and the changing attitudes towards religion and spirituality. Throughout the book, Ross provides detailed analysis and commentary on the various social, economic, and political changes that have taken place in America. He draws on a wide range of sources, including statistical data, historical documents, and personal observations, to provide a comprehensive picture of how America has changed over time. Overall, Changing America: Studies In Contemporary Society is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a unique perspective on the history and evolution of American society. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the complex social, economic, and political forces that have shaped America over the past century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
