5 ★ It has a very good summary of the work of sociologist. The information is clear and easy to understand. Well done! It is a very good thing to describe the background of each of the sociologist.(when they were born etc..) It teaches us more about the sociologist,.not just what they said. Very enriching!!!
3 ★ The app is quite good, but I have few suggestions to tell you 1. The thinkers are arranged in alphabetical order but instead if it is in chronological order it will be more effective for our reference....please make this update in this app 2. The info given is very crisp and short....please make it elaborate and give definitions separately for each sociological terminology which would be very handy for our study Thank you!
5 ★ What a great way to summarize some of the best social thinkers in history. I have it at my fingertips for when I need to make sure a point I'm making is grounded in intellectual thought. It's some great reading, too. I find the app to be easy to read too. Not difficult with the black background. Easy read in the dark before retiring to sleep...
4 ★ Provides in depth summary of major theorists. A must have for Dr.David Fords Theories class. Get it, get it!
5 ★ Need to add some more thinkers including the feminists..
4 ★ It's amazing! Covers the theorists in so much depth! HOWEVER, only male theorists - not a single female theorist - not even the main ones (ie. Elizabeth Bott and Ann Oakley). Hence the 4 stars.
5 ★ I needed help with social theory. A friend recommended this app to me and it was GREAT. Really clean and organized. There's a ton of information for a lot of different learners as well! Well deserved 5 stars
5 ★ It will be nice if there is any other laguages option☺ But so far, it's help me a lot as a Sociology student!😊
2 ★ Says app is inaccessible! Great app and now this. Wish you could fix it asap
4 ★ My only complaint so far is the white font with the black background. It makes it difficult to read for more that a few lines at a time. The font is also too small.
4 ★ Noticed some theorists weren't included, like Spencer. But overall great app!
5 ★ Each text that guid us to think about sociology and be wrote accuratly can usefull for students and researcher.Many thanks for agents.
4 ★ please make the text more readable. white on black is awful
1 ★ No good reason for this many permissions. Something stinks.
1 ★ Change it and i will give it 5stars the backgroung color and the text hurt my eyes
