In this book Lee Rudolph brings together international contributors
who combine psychological and mathematical perspectives to analyse
how qualitative mathematics can be used to create models of social
and psychological processes. Bridging the gap between the fields
with an imaginative and stimulating collection of contributed
chapters, the volume updates the current research on the subject,
which until now has been rather limited, focussing largely on the
use of statistics. Qualitative Mathematics for the Social Sciences
contains a variety of useful illustrative figures, introducing
readers from the social sciences to the rich contribution that
modern mathematics has made to our knowledge of logic, structures,
and dynamic systems. A beguiling array of conceptual systems,
topological models and fractals are discussed which transcend the
application of statistics, and bring a fresh perspective to the
study of social representations. The wide selection of qualitative
mathematical methodologies discussed in this volume will be hugely
valuable to higher-level undergraduate and postgraduate students of
psychology, sociology and mathematics. It will also be useful for
researchers, academics and professionals from the social sciences
who want a firmer grasp on the use of qualitative mathematics.
