Magic, Science and Society investigates the way the rationality debate has developed over the last century, from E.E. Evans-Pritchards study of Azande magic, through Peter Winchs argument that there can be no such thing as a social science, across the arguments about the proper status of science in the 1970s and 1980s, to the epistemological and ontological turns of the early twenty-first century.
Different people have different understandings of what is rational: some practise magic, some orientate to legal convention and tradition and others defer to science and logic. Starting with anthropological studies of witchcraft, and working through to contemporary debates about epistemology and ontology in social science, this book systematically examines the ways key questions about these issues have been framed and answered.
