商品簡介
Baronov (sociology, St. John Fisher College, Rochester, New York) addresses unexplored assumptions and hidden ideologies that underlie college education. While he focuses on the social sciences generally and sociology in particular, he suggests that students in the physical sciences and the humanities could also learn much about unspoken premises in their own discipline. He covers embryonic positivism, logical positivism, postpositivism, structuralism, hermeneutics, pragmatism, anti-foundationalism, and what next. The pragmatics chapter is new, but generally he has merely supplemented the material in the 2004 first edition and updated the bibliographies.
