Sobre este artículo
FIRST EDITION. Octavo, publisher's cloth. An undisputed classic in the philosophy of social science, the substantial content of which marks a continuation of Popper's relentless pursuit of the principal of falsification, as outlined in the seminal Logic of Scientific Discovery, brought to bear on the methodology of historicist social science. It is a broad rebuttal of holism, that is, the view that social groups and societies are greater than the sum of their parts and can be treated as 'organic' entities in their own right, as well as the predominance of the dialectical conceptions of social change in the methodology of the social sciences. This copy belonged to Philosopher Sidney Hook (December 20, 1902 July 12, 1989) who was an American philosopher of the pragmatist school known for his contributions to the philosophy of history, the philosophy of education, political theory, and ethics (Wikipedia). Tipped in is the actual invoice for the book purchase dated from Blackwell s Ltd. dated 11/18/57. A fine copy in a neat-fine unclipped dustwrapper with a small chip at the top of the spine. Book is virtually unopened and it s doubtful that Mr. Hook actually read this particular copy given its condition.
