The History and Philosophy of Social Science By H. Scott Gordon
1993 | 704 Pages | ISBN: 0415096707 , 0415056829 | PDF | 2 MB


At once a major contribution and a superb overview, The History and Philosophy of Social Science is a bold new synthesis of the different traditions in the social sciences. Scott Gordon provides a review of the historical development of the social sciences from their beginnings in Renaissance Italy to the present day. He examines the problems that the great thinkers have confronted in their attempts to construct systematic theories of social phenomena. At the same time, he presents an authoritative survey of the major writers in the fields of economics, sociology and political science.
