A start...

Okay, so this is the first time I've done this. I started by pulling a bit of material from the wikipedia entry for sociolgy and worked through it in a way that i think makes sense. My next run through will involve citations and references. Following that thought it might be a wise idea to talk a bit about the central concepts within sociology--terms like social structure, culture, institution, social action, etc. I think some might start by diving into the history of sociology, but i'm not sure that's the best place to begin. -- Russell Westhaver
