Recenzii
“For too long, scholars have debated whether social science can be a true science. Baldwin’s book draws upon pragmatist philosophy to propose a new way to reframe the debate. It is one of the most balanced proposals that I have read for how social science can get on with the business of understanding human behavior, interaction, and organization. It is, I believe, a must read for those who want the warfare to end and who want social science to accumulate useful knowledge.”

Descriere
Critics claim that science, including social science, is 'merely a social construction' that fallible humans have created with words and other symbols. This title explains why the edifice of science has robust properties that make it one of the most useful forms of knowledge that humans have ever created, although it is not perfect.
