Scientometrics for the Humanities and Social Sciences is the first
ever book on scientometrics that deals with the historical
development of both quantitative and qualitative data analysis in
scientometric studies. It focuses on its applicability in new and
emerging areas of inquiry. This important book presents the
inherent potential for data mining and analysis of qualitative data
in scientometrics. The author provides select cases of
scientometric studies in the humanities and social sciences,
explaining their research objectives, sources of data and
methodologies. It illustrates how data can be gathered not only
from prominent online databases and repositories, but also from
journals that are not stored in these databases. With the support
of specific examples, the book shows how data on demographic
variables can be collected to supplement scientometric data. The
book deals with a research methodology which has an increasing
applicability not only to the study of science, but also to the
study of the disciplines in the humanities and social sciences.
