Description:
Identity is never just an individual matter; it is intricately shaped by our experiences of social life. Taking a Symbolic Interactionist approach, and drawing on Goffman™s dramaturgical theory, Susie Scott explores the micro-social processes of interaction through which identities are created, maintained, challenged and reinvented. With a focus on empirical studies as illustrations, classic sociological theory is applied to contemporary examplesEach chapter focuses on a key dimension of how identities are negotiated in the drama of everyday life, from politeness and face-saving rituals to secrecy, lies and deception. Goffman™s ideas are explored in relation to self-presentation, role-making, group interaction and public behaviour, while language and discourse are shown to help people to give credible identity performances and to frame social situations. The book reveals how social selves change over the life course through stigma, labelling and deviant careers, and how life in a total institution can radically transform its members' identities. Through all of these processes, self and society are shown to be intertwinedThis insightful approach will appeal to students taking a range of courses in the sociology of the self, identity, interaction and everyday life

Easy Claims Process
It is not a long complicated process to file and resolve a claim. Be warned--sometimes they will want you to send back the defective or damaged product, even if it's not worth the shipping ---they pay. Overall worth the investment though.

Asurion you made the return process simple
Working with Asurion was an easy process. My previously covered milk frother stopped working, and they fully refunded it with no questions asked. All I had to do was ship the broken item back to them and they sent me a gift card. To cover the initial cost, no questions asked. The refund process was a very simple and painless.

My Very First Juicer!
This was one of the worst buys ever! I couldn't have not bought a worse machine. The best this about it was that it has very few parts that are very easy to assemble, disassemble, and clean. Everything that could go wrong went wrong. I'm already looking for a new better one. I can't tell you how many times the top popped off well in the process of juicing or God forbid, if you just tapped it a tiny bit. Very annoying! It kept falling inside my freshly juiced juice. SMH. I'm giving it away to someone I don't like.
