From the descriptions and actions of the characters, Donny and Cal and Daisy and Cal’s ex-wife are each mirror characters of each other. When describing Cal, Tyler says, “His hair was as long and stringy as Donny’s and his jeans as faded” (Tyler, 1983, 288). Donny and Cal’s similarities go far beyond their looks. The whole time he was tutoring Donny, Cal never made progress, and Donny was still doing just as poorly in school as he was when he started sessions with Cal. The story also says that…

Crime is a common yet concerning structure of society. With many types of crimes, sociologist work to discover why certain crimes occur. Through research and examination, we get sociological theories of crime. The theory I chose to explore in hopes to explain property crime was Anomie. Anomie is thought to be the instability a society or individual holds due to a lack of values or inability to meet societal pressures. Anomie can be caused by unemployment, racial or immigrant inequality, or other…

Howard described his ideal city as a completed and finite entity, but pragmatically stated that his diagrams were not to be taken literally and that the actual plan must be depend upon the selection of a specific site (Miller, 1983). Howard had indicated that the smaller towns could have some degree of functional specialization but the central city would provide high degree of cultural and specialized commercial functions found only in large cities (Batchelor, 1969).

I can say that I learned a lot about Taoism. In Taoism, there is no definite god or deity. Some Taoists believe in a god, and some don’t. However, Tao meaning “Way”, is something found within yourself, as Hoff describes as your “Inner Nature” (Hoff 1983 : 38). The way I interpreted this, is that Taoists are in tune with themselves, and with nature. Everything is the way it is, and everything happens the way it happens, and if you try to stop it or change it you are missing the point. If you…

Such modifications take place when communication is not successful; therefore, the participants in the communication start to negotiate to look for solutions to the problem. “As they negotiate, they work…
