- Double-weighted statement
- This substantial 90,000 word book represents the culmination of over 5 years of sociological and philosophical research into the history and philosophy of the contemporary social sciences, including, but not limited to, the disciplines of sociology, anthropology and psychology. The new and original theoretical framework proposed in the book presents a sustained argument not possible in independent journal articles. It involved the detailed, original analysis of hitherto inadequately connected scholarship from the sociology of knowledge and the epistemology of the social sciences, and close reading of sources drawn from the traditions of early American Pragmatism and Process Philosophy.
