If you go and see your doctor or a therapist, you'll become a 'case' to them. They'll want to know a lot more about you. Similarly, sociological case studies involve putting a social group, an event or a place 'under the microscope'. This film looks at a classic sociological study, The Spiritual Revolution, to show why case studies are used in sociology, what they provide for the sociologist and the extent to which findings can be generalised.
