Social Science Quotations: Who Said What, When, and Where
ISBN: 9780765807205 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 462 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Social Science Quotations has been prepared to meet an evident, unmet need in the literature of the social sciences. Writings on the lives and theories of individual social scientists abound, but there has been no fully documented collection of memorable quotations from the social sciences as a whole. The frequent use of quotations in scientific as well as literary writings that are mere summaries or paraphrases typically fail to capture the full force of formulations that have made quotations memorable.

Using as a model the discursive and digressive style of Sterne's "Tristram Shandy," Merton presents a whimsical yet scholarly work which deals with the questions of creativity, tradition, plagiarism, the transmission of knowledge, and the concept of progress.
"This book is the delightful apotheosis of donmanship: Merton parodies scholarliness while being faultlessly scholarly; he scourges pedantry while brandishing his own...

Genesis and Development of a Scientific Fact
ISBN: 9780226253251 / Angielski / Miękka / 1981 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Originally published in German in 1935, this monograph anticipated solutions to problems of scientific progress, the truth of scientific fact and the role of error in science now associated with the work of Thomas Kuhn and others. Arguing that every scientific concept and theory including his own is culturally conditioned, Fleck was appreciably ahead of his time. And as Kuhn observes in his foreword, "Though much has occurred since its publication, it remains a brilliant and largely unexploited resource."
