Scientific Practice and Ordinary Action: Ethnomethodology and Social Studies of Science
ISBN: 9780521597425 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Philosophers, historians, and sociologists of science have grown increasingly interested in the daily practices of scientists. Recent studies have drawn linkages between scientific innovations and more ordinary procedures, craft skills, and sources of sponsorship. These studies dispute the idea that science is the application of a unified method or the outgrowth of a progressive history of ideas. The central purpose of this book is to explore the possibility of an empirical approach to the epistemic contents of science that avoids the pitfalls of scientism and foundationalism.

Big Prisons, Big Dreams: Crime and the Failure of America's Penal System
ISBN: 9780813541860 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The American prison system has grown tenfold since the 1970s, but crime rates in the United States have not decreased. This doesn't surprise Michael J. Lynch, a critical criminologist, who argues that our oversized prison system is a product of our consumer culture, the public's inaccurate beliefs about controlling crime, and the government's criminalizing of the poor. While deterrence and incapacitation theories suggest that imprisoning more criminals and punishing them leads to a reduction in crime, case studies, such as one focusing on the New York City jail system between 1993 and...The American prison system has grown tenfold since the 1970s, but crime rates in the United States have not decreased.
