Interior design is mostly emotional. Read professional journals on how human beings are affected by internal spaces. However, you might spend time looking at successful models of interior design: malls, cathedrals, coffee houses and award winning spaces. Where people deliberately gather to feel better means the design appeals to broad audiences. Sociology addresses such a broad array of social issues, you may be distracted. A history of architecture and housing might be more relevant if your design concern is for people. GL

Who is credited with being the world's first professor of sociology?

There is a very good chance it was Auguste Comte. He is generally regarded as the founder of the discipline of sociology, and since he founded it, he may very well have been the first to teach about it; another person who may have been one of the first to teach it was Harriet Martineau, who translated Comte's ideas from French into English in 1853.


Is the science of sociology concerned with the creation of an ideal society?

No, sociology is primarily focused on studying patterns of social behavior, interactions, and institutions in society. It seeks to understand how societies function and change over time, rather than prescribing what an ideal society should look like. While sociologists may explore social issues and propose solutions, the discipline itself does not aim to create an ideal society.

What are some beginner sociology internet research links?

After class lectures online or via telecourse I often am asked the question of how to do learn more about sociology online. Although, search engines can be a wonderful tool for random exploration, here are some websites worth your while: 1. The American Sociological Association (ASA) website has a section for students at all levels (http://www.asanet.org/apap/student.html). The ASA website also has the ASA booklet on careers in sociology at (http://www.asanet.org/student/career/homepage.html). Cut and Paste URL into your browser window. 2. If the sociological theorists seem too imposing, take a look at the Dead Sociologists' Society (http://www2.pfeiffer.edu/~lridener/dss/deadsoc.html). Larry Ridener founded the site after seeing the 1989 Robin Williams movie Dead Poets Society. As the Williams character tried to get his students interested in poetry, Ridener wanted his students interested in sociological ideas. The site has excellent links on a wide variety of sociology topics. 3. Sociology shows us that decisions that seem highly personal and individual (like the decision to commit suicide) fall into patterns. Another such decision is what to name a baby. You can see these patterns and check your own name at the U.S. Census website (http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/babynames/). Cut and Paste URL into your browser window. 4. Sociology Journals: DMOZ.org the Open Directory Project purchased by GOOGLE has a pretty good list of academic and public sociology journals that is online accessible. http://www.dmoz.org/Science/Social_Sciences/Sociology/Journals/ Cut and Paste URL into your browser window. 5.
