About This Item
New Brunswick, NJ, U.S.A.: Rutgers University Press, 1989. Book. Very Good. Paperback. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 264 pages including index. The social sciences are in turmoil. There is not even any agreement on the nature of the subject matter. Robin Fox, an anthropologist, has always spoken out for a science of society based on evolutionary theory as a way out of the confusion. Here he shares with us, in essays, his explorations of this contentious subject matter. His focal point is the endemic opposition to any approach based on innate human qualities, and hence any definition of cultural universals. This opposition is deeply ingrained and often irrational, so Fox digs into its past to uncover its philosophical and political underpinnings..
