Seller's Description:
Near Fine. Size: 8x5x0; First Paperback Edition. Brown glossy cover with yellow and white text. For too long, argues Richard Harvey Brown, social scientists have felt forced to choose between imitating science's empirical methodology and impersonating a romantic notion of art, the methods of which are seen as primarily a matter of intuition, interpretation, and opinion. Developing the idea of a "cognitive aesthetic, " Brown shows how both science and art-as well as the human studies that stand between them-depend on metaphoric thinking as their "logic of discovery" and may be assessed in terms of such aesthetic criteria of adequacy as economy, elegance, originality, scope, congruence, and form. By recognizing this "aesthetic" common ground between science and art, Brown demonstrates that a fusion can be achieved within the human sciences of these two principal ideals of knowledge-the scientific or positivist one and the artistic or intuitive one. A path, then, is opened for creating a knowledge of ourselves and society which is at once objective and subjective, at once valid scientifically and significantly humane. 302pp. CONDITION: Covers are lightly rubbed. Spine is a little sunned and creased. Previous owner's name on front flyleaf. Pages are crisp and clean. Binding and textblock are sound. Full refund if not satisfied.
