This book is an introduction to the philosophical ideas of Plato,
Rene Descartes, Baruch Spinoza, and Immanuel Kant on the role of
reason which have contributed to the evolution of sociological
thought. Reason, according to Rickman, has a relevance to sociology
that has not been explored. Because he is interested in the
philosophical reflections which proved influential for
understanding the social world, he deals systematically with the
four philosophers' central arguments and one or more of their most
important and easily available texts. The book's bibliography lists
books quoted and referred to in the text and offers suggestions for
further reading in the philosophy of the social sciences.
