What is sociology?

About Sociology
Games, theme parks, coffee, infectious diseases, inequality,
All are subject to sociology.
Sociology focuses on the relationships between people.
How has the fun entertainment created by people developed? How did the custom of discussing business over coffee come about? How are infectious diseases and inequality changing society? Sociology is an academic field that uses our imagination to learn about human groups and help solve the problems that arise, from the human relationships around us to global conflicts.
