Epistemology, Methodology, and the Social Sciences - Boston Studies in the Philosophy and History of Science Softcover reprint of hardcover 1st ed. 1983 edition
R S Cohen
What has been called 'post-positivist' philosophy of science has introduced radically new concerns with historical, social, and valuative components of scientific thought in the natural sciences, and has raised up the demons of relativism, subjectivism and sociologism to haunt the once calm precincts of objectivity and realism.
