Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
We live, we are told, in bourgeois societies. But what is the bourgeois worldview? In this book, the author argues that science - the attempt to describe the order of things 'objectively' and 'dispassionately' - is the highest expression of bourgeois thought.
