- Double-weighted statement
- This book is a monograph that drew on two years of research, covering a range of disciplinary areas, including psychology, economics, sociology, history of economics and history of science. Methods included interviews, case studies and a large quantity of analysis of the history of the social sciences. Its unusually interdisciplinary nature required extra time and effort to synthesise, but has yielded the benefit of speaking to multiple audiences, including a general audience.
