PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Phil Hutchinson, Senior Lecturer in Philosophy, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK, Rupert Read, Reader in Philosophy, University of East Anglia, UK and Wes Sharrock, Professor of Sociology, University of Manchester, UK.
'The authors perform the invaluable service of reminding us of the continuing relevance of Peter Winch's groundbreaking book The Idea of a Social Science and Its Relation to Philosophy. Correcting many of the persistent misunderstandings of Winch's work, they make a powerful case for the claim that there is as much need for its lessons today as there was when it was first published 50 years ago.' David Cockburn, University of Wales Lampeter,UK 'There is No Such Thing as a Social Science is far more than an interpretation and appraisal of Peter Winch's Idea of a Social Science, fifty years after its initial publication. Hutchinson, Read and Sharrock offer a bold and a forceful reminder that the implications of Winch's arguments are no less devastating for social and cultural theory today than they were for deterministic and ethnocentric social science a half-century ago.'
