Lorne Tepperman

Lorne Tepperman

Dr. Lorne Tepperman is a researcher who focuses on families and health-related family issues, as well as deviance and social control. Since 1970, he has taught sociology at the University of Toronto, where he also served as chair from 1997 to 2003 and as Director of the Health Studies Program from 2005 to 2007. He has mostly focused on authoring textbooks for undergraduates studying family, social inequality, social problems, deviance, and other sociological topics in recent years.

Tepperman's purpose is to make sociological literature as accessible as possible while staying away from oversimplification. He has also authored books for the general public on social inequity, compulsive gambling, and sociology's historic goals for similar reasons.

Social Problems: A Canadian Perspective, Sixth Edition

The extensively updated edition of “Social Problems: A Canadian Perspective, 6th Edition” tackles a wide range of contemporary issues by incorporating diverse voices and adopting a concise, intersectional approach. This encourages students to become active, engaged citizens committed to understanding and addressing social challenges both in Canada and globally. The book explores various theoretical perspectives—such as structural-functionalism, conflict theory, symbolic interactionism, feminism, and social constructionism—enabling students to analyze and interpret these issues from multiple angles. Authored by distinguished Canadian scholars, this text serves as a vital resource for examining social problems within the country. The 6th edition of Tepperman’s “Social Problems” has been thoroughly reimagined to not only highlight urgent social issues of our time, including COVID-19, racial equity, Indigenous justice, and wealth disparity but also to empower students to take meaningful action in their communities and beyond. Retaining the valuable features of the previous edition, such as “Be an Active Citizen,” this new version also introduces fresh elements to inspire students to engage further as citizen sociologists. These new features include engaging video clips, profiles, and interactive activities, all accessible through the Enhanced eBook— a fully digital version of the text. As the only current Canadian textbook on social problems that continues to undergo revisions, Tepperman et al.’s sixth edition stands out as the preferred choice for both instructors and students.
