This is the definitive companion to the study of the philosophy of
the social sciences. It provides the student with an accessible,
comprehensive and philosophically rigorous introduction to all the
major philosophical concepts, issues and debates raised by the
social sciences. Ideal for use in undergraduate courses, the
structure and content of this textbook - the most thorough, clearly
argued and up-to-date available - closely reflect the way the
philosophy of the social sciences is studied and taught. The text
examines key conceptual and methodological questions in the social
sciences and illustrates how these shape the practice of research,
the interpretation of findings and theory formulation in such
disciplines as economics, political science and psychology. The
book not only offers lucid and incisive coverage of the philosophy
of the social sciences, but also extends the major debates and
considers the latest directions in this growing area of
philosophical interest. Robert C. Bishop's cogent and rigorous
analysis is supplemented by useful pedagogical features, including
key examples from philosophical writing; summaries of core debates;
sample questions and exercises; and guides for further reading.
