330 8 $a'The Group in Society' meets the challenges of teaching courses on small groups by revealing the full complexity of small groups and their place in society. It shows students the value of learning how to study carefully a group's history and context, rather than merely learning a fixed set of group participation skills. The text brings together disparate theories and research (from communication, social psychology, organizational and managerial studies, and sociology) in a way that helps students make sense of a complex body of scholarship on groups.
