    Abstract: In Contemporary Social Constructionism, Darin Weinberg provides a detailed, critical overview of the key themes of this school of thought, which explains how phenomena and ways of thinking develop in their social contexts. Weinberg traces the multiple roots of social constructionism, and shows how it has been used, critiqued, and refined within the social and human sciences.  Contemporary Social Constructionism illuminates how constructionist social science developed in relation to positivism, critical and hermeneutic philosophy, and feminism and then goes on to distinguish the concept from po

    Abstract: This volume of essays, which originated in the inaugural Dublin Gastronomy Symposium held in the Dublin Institute of Technology in June 2012, offers fascinating insights into the significant role played by gastronomy in Irish literature and culture. The book opens with an exploration of food in literature, covering figures as varied as Maria Edgeworth, James Joyce, Charles Dickens, Enid Blyton, John McGahern and Sebastian Barry. Other chapters examine culinary practices among the Dublin working classes in the 1950s, offering a stark contrast to the haute cuisine served in the iconic Jammet's

Der Tod zeigte sein lebensverneinendes Gesicht, wurde als unabänderliche Naturgewalt erfahren. Er verlor angesichts des Grauens seine heilsgeschichtliche Bedeutung und forderte seine Bekämpfung heraus. Die Anstrengung des modernen Menschen hat seitdem drei Stoßrichtungen: Das Leben muss sicherer werden, es muss schneller werden und das Fremde muss getilgt werden.Die große Presseresonanz und die hohen Verkaufszahlen dieses Buches zeigen, wie sehr die Autorin einen empfindlichen Nerv unser

    Abstract: There is a blind spot in recent accounts of the history, theory and aesthetics of optical media: namely, the field of the three-dimensional, or trans-plane, image. It has been widely used in the 20th century for very different practices - military, scientific and medical visualization - precisely because it can provide more spatial information. And now in the 21st century, television and film are employing the method even more. Appearing for the first time in English, Jens Schroeter's comprehensive study of the aesthetics of the 3D image is a major scholarly addition to this evolving field. Ci

    Abstract: Das Bild des frühneuzeitlichen Deutschland ist bis heute geprägt von der Wahrnehmung weißer Akteure. Die neuere Geschichtswissenschaft sieht in ihnen zunehmend Menschen, die vor dem Hintergrund eines gesamteuropäischen Horizontes handelten. Doch lässt sich für Menschen afrikanischer Herkunft Ähnliches sagen? Die Autorin analysiert zum einen deutsche Berührungspunkte mit dem transatlantischen und mediterranen Sklavenhandel und der nordamerikanischen Sklavenhaltung. Zum anderen setzt sich die Studie mit überlieferten Stereotypen über Afrika und Afrikaner auseinander, wie sie in zentralen schriftlichen und künstlerischen Medien der Zeit zwischen 1600 und 1800 vermittelt wurden. Sie untersucht die Rolle von schwarzen Menschen an den Höfen unter für die höfische Gesellschaft zentralen Kriterien wie »Herrschaft«, »Rang« und »Repräsentation«. Jenseits ihrer formalrechtlichen Positionen an den Höfen finden sich vielfach Hinweise auf Integration und Aneignung.

    Abstract: Digitalization and computerization are now pervasive in science. This has deep consequences for our understanding of scientific knowledge and of the scientific process, and challenges longstanding assumptions and traditional frameworks of thinking of scientific knowledge. Digital media and computational processes challenge our conception of the way in which perception and cognition work in science, of the objectivity of science, and the nature of scientific objects. They bring about new relationships between science, art and other visual media, and new ways of practicing science and organizing

    Abstract: The forms by which a deceased person may be brought to rest are as many as there are causes of death. In most societies the disposal of the corpse is accompanied by some form of celebration or ritual which may range from a simple act of deportment in solitude to the engagement of large masses of people in laborious and creative festivities. In a funerary context the term ritual may be taken to represent a process that incorporates all the actions performed and thoughts expressed in connection with a dying and dead person, from the preparatory pre-death stages to the final deposition of the cor

    Abstract: Analyzing the history of the Jews of Spain from the time of the Visigoths to the present, this study investigates periods of discrimination against converted Jews that went beyond the merely religious, finding similarities to the racial and secular anti-Semitism of modernity. Some scholars have drawn parallels between the Spanish castizo ethnicism embodied in the ""cleanliness of blood"" statutes and the German volkisch (anti-Semitic) beliefs that sustained Nazism. Others have found Inquisition-like parallels in post-inquisitorial Spain--including during the Spanish Civil War and the Francoist

    Abstract: 'Cosmopolitanism and Nationhood in the Age of Jefferson' explores the origins of modern conceptions of world citizenship and the nation in Jeffersonian America.

    Abstract: This book examines the United States as a destination for international consumers of assisted fertility services, including egg donation, surrogacy, and sex selection. Based on interviews conducted with fertility industry insiders who market their services to an international clientele in three of the largest American hubs of the global fertility marketplace - New York City, Los Angeles, and San Francisco - and focusing on the providers rather than the consumers of assisted fertility services, the book shines a light on how professional ethics and norms, in addition to personal moralities, sha

    Abstract: Wie lebt es sich ohne soziale Absicherung? Anhand detaillierter Fallstudien ermöglicht diese Ethnographie Einblicke in die Lebenswelt und die Krankheitserfahrungen undokumentierter Lateinamerikaner_innen in Deutschland. Susann Huschke zeigt, wie Arbeitsmigrantinnen und -migranten ohne Aufenthaltsstatus ihren Lebensalltag ohne soziale Absicherung organisieren, und nimmt die Probleme und Lücken in der medizinischen Versorgung kritisch unter die Lupe. Das Buch wendet sich nicht nur an die Medizinethnologie und die Migrationsforschung, sondern auch an diejenigen, die in der Praxis mit Gesundheit

    Abstract: (Dis)Orientation appears to be a phenomenon that is connected to media in numerous respects: today, finding your way in the world often means finding your way with the help of as well as within media, which in turn creates new virtual realms of (dis)orientation. This book deals with recent media technologies and structures (navigation devices, databases, transmediality) and unconventional narrative patterns (narrative complexity, plot twists, non-linearity), using the ambivalent concept of (dis)orientation as a shared focus to analyse various phenomena of contemporary media, thereby raising ov

    Abstract: Culture is a constant reference in debates surrounding Islam in Europe. Yet the notion of culture is commonly restricted to conceptual frames of multiculturalism where it relates to group identities, collective ways of life and recognition. This volume extends such analysis of culture by approaching it as semiotic practice which conjoins the making of subjects with the configuration of the social. Examining fields such as memory, literature, film, and Islamic art, the studies in this volume explore culture as another element in the assemblage of rationalities governing European Islam. From thi

Mit dem Takt gehen Fragen nach dem Maß, der Angemessenheit oder dem Stil eines bestimmten Verhaltens oder einer Interaktion einher. Im Sozialen ist der unscheinbare Takt ein äußerst wirksames Instrument, um den anderen - aber auch sich selbst - zu schonen.

    Abstract: In 1863, San Francisco's Board of Supervisors passed a law that criminalized appearing in public in "a dress not belonging to his or her sex." Adopted as part of a broader anti-indecency campaign, the cross-dressing law became a flexible tool for policing multiple gender transgressions, facilitating over one hundred arrests before the century's end. Over forty U.S. cities passed similar laws during this time, yet little is known about their emergence, operations, or effects. Grounded in a wealth of archival material, Arresting Dress traces the career of anti-cross-dressing laws from municipal

    Abstract: Historical research methods in education are a vital tool for understanding contemporary concerns and for challenging our pre-existing assumptions and attitudes. The stigma associated with adult illiteracy is undoubtedly a barrier to effective teaching and learning. There is still a worrying juxtaposition of illiteracy with criminality, unemployment, and other 'social' issues, with the most damaging of all being the association of illiteracy with low intelligence. How was illiteracy regarded in the past? Is there any evidence of stigmatization? How can this increase our understanding of presen

    Abstract: "Entering the world of dating can be intimidating--but for those suffering from shyness or social anxiety it is especially difficult. Single, Shy, and Looking for Love presents mindfulness, acceptance, and values-based techniques from acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help shy singles explore what they want in a romantic partner, cope with the anxiety and fear that can arise on a date, and develop the skills needed to create a long-lasting, intimate relationship"--
    Abstract: "What if he thinks I'm not good looking enough? What if she thinks I'm boring? What if I can't think of anything to talk about? When it comes to dating, most people have had these thoughts and fears at some point. The truth is that going on a date can be downright nerve-wracking-and if you suffer from shyness or social anxiety, it is especially so. So how can you stay calm, cool, and collected as you set out on the search for the perfect mate? Single, Shy, and Looking for Love presents mindfulness, acceptance, and values-based techniques from acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help shy singles like you get "in the game," cope with the anxiety and fear that can arise on a date, and go on to create long-lasting, intimate relationships. By learning to stay focused in the present moment, you'll arm yourself against the catastrophic thoughts that cause you to buckle under pressure. And by connecting with your own core values, you'll gain a greater understanding of yourself and what you ultimately want in a romantic partner. Confidence is often considered one of the most attractive qualities a man or woman can have, and social confidence will take you far-not only in love, but in life as well. If you're ready to stop being a wallflower and start putting yourself out there, this book will give you the skills you need to get back in the dating game and find the love you deserve"--

    Abstract: THIS EYE-OPENING LOOK AT THE RISING OPPRESSION OF ISRAELI WOMEN OFFERS A RALLYING CRY FOR HOW WOMEN EVERYWHERE CAN FIGHT BACK. ACROSS ISRAEL-one of the world's most democratic countries-women are being threatened and abused as ultra-Orthodox Jewish factions seek to suppress them. In this stunning exposé, award-winning author and leading Jewish women's activist Elana Sztokman reveals the struggles of Israeli women against this increasing oppression, from segregation on public buses-in a move Hillary Clinton called ""reminiscent of Rosa Parks""-to being silenced in schools and erased f

    Keywords: Symbolism ; Constellations Mythology ; Constellations Folklore ; Astrology and mythology.. ; Sun worship.. ; Astronomy.. ; Sun ; Mythology.. ; Moon ; Mythology.. ; Earth (Planet) ; Mythology.. ; Mars (Planet) ; Mythology ; Electronic books ; Solar system Folklore
    Abstract: This book is an amateur astronomer's guide to the mythology and symbolism associated with the celestial bodies in the Solar System, and even includes some of the legendary tales of people who had or have a connection with these objects. It explores different cultures (for example, the Greco-Roman and the Norse) and different times and how stories were used to explain the worlds they saw above them. You'd be amazed how much of our world today reflects the myths and stories of these cultures! Most amateur astronomers are familiar with the various Solar System objects, but they will be only peripherally aware of what ancient cultures thought of these other worlds. In fact, the mythology of the planets challenges many twenty-first century concepts and beliefs There are other books available on astromythology, but this one focuses mostly on our own Solar System, as opposed to the constellations and deep sky objects. Alexander offers a new angle on timeless subjects and is exciting, informative and dramatic, as well as surprisingly relevant to everyday life. Find out for yourself how our modern world is steeped in the bygone worlds of yesteryear. Rachel Alexander grew up in Nottingham, England, surrounded by the mythology of english and history at Hatfield Polytechnic (UK), including ancient Greek history and philosophy, before completing her post-graduate Certificate of Education (the UK qualification for Teaching) at Exeter University. She then went on to teach English in a secondary school, before eventually becoming a Learning Support Tutor at Exeter College. She taught English to Japanese students every year in Exeter and/or Dorset until 2011, and has taught English to Japanese students in Nara, Japan. Following her time in Japan she returned to education and studied Fine Art at Plymouth University. On this course she specialized in Portraiture and researching and compiling information on Symbolism, which led to and has enhanced her interest in Mythology. She has had a long-time interest in amateur astronomy.

The story begins on a hunting trip Collins took with his father and brothers in the early '70s, when he was accidentally shot with a high-powered deer rifle at the age of 13 near the top of an isolated peak in northeastern Nevada. He tells a personal story of a childhood in Idaho and Nevada, where hunting is a way of life and guns are revered--often with fatal and unintended results. He recalls friends--past and present--whose lives have been forever shattered or altered by the explosive force of a bullet"--

    Keywords: Sex offenders ; Psychology.. ; Sex crimes ; Psychological aspects ; Electronic books ; Electronic books
    Abstract: ?Anhand der Daten von 126 inhaftierten Sexualstraftätern analysiert Anja Niemeczek die strukturellen Zusammenhänge zwischen Persönlichkeits- und Einstellungsmerkmalen, Lebensumständen sowie Verhaltensweisen bei der Begehung eines Sexualdelikts. Eine Strukturgleichungsmodellierung dieser Faktoren legt eine Unterscheidung von homosexuell und heterosexuell orientierten Tätern nahe. Diese Tätergruppen unterscheiden sich sowohl in normalpsychologischen und psychopathologischen Merkmalen, wie auch in der Opferwahl, in Merkmalen der Kontaktaufnahme und Tatbegehung. Anja Niemeczek, Diplom-Psychologin, ist wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin am Lehrstuhl für Strafrecht und Kriminologie der Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg.

Summary of the ideas in James McQuivey's book: " Digital Disruption "explains that an impressive amount of "digital innovators" are about to be born by using the free or nearly-free tools already widely available and they will bring about massive change in the market. This summary shows that the logical approach is to become a digital disruptor yourself before someone else achieves the same result with your customers.It also highlights the three things you need to do to exce

    Abstract: Racism and racial prejudice, considered a relic of obsolete and outdated social systems, is re-emerging in the depths of ultra-modern Western societies with different characteristics from the past but with a surprising and worrying virulence. Forms of old racial prejudice, such as anti-Semitism, reappear in unexpected forms, presenting new and unpredicted characteristics, whereas anti-Islamism seems to challenge, by diffusion, transversality and essentiality, the worst historical anti-Semitic exhibitions. These waves of prejudice and racism that follow one after the other at the dawn of the tw

    Abstract: Most young Africans are living in a state of "waithood," argues Alcinda Honwana, finding themselves suspended in limbo between childhood and adulthood. Failed neoliberal economic policies, bad governance, and political instability have caused stable jobs to disappear; and without jobs that pay living wages, these young people cannot become fully participating members of society. But that is only part of the story. Examining the lives of young people in Mozambique, Senegal, South Africa, and Tunisia, Honwana focuses on the transformative potential of the waithood generation--not only in Africa, but also globally--as young people come to believe that the struggle to overcome their predicament requires radical social and political change. From organizing protests in the streets of Maputo, Dakar, Madrid, and New York, to sparking revolutions in Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya, the waithood generation, as we are reminded in The Time of Youth, is using its resources redress the wrongs of contemporary society.

    Abstract: I spent my 11th wedding anniversary planning my husband's funeral. If I could just figure out how to make that rhyme, it would be the beginning of a great country song. Involuntarily single. That's the true story of where Catherine Tidd finds herself just three weeks after turning thirty-one. Widowed with three children under six years old, a rusty resume, no fix-it skills, and no clue how to live life as a widow, Catherine can't help but be a little exasperated with her dead husband for leaving her to deal with life on her own. Catherine's now in charge of her life i

    Abstract: How did children feel in the Middle Ages and early modern times? How did adults feel about the children around them? This collection addresses these fundamental but rarely asked questions about social and family relations by bringing together two emerging fields within cultural history - childhood and emotion - and provides avenues through which to approach their shared histories. Bringing together a wide range of material and sources such as court records, self-narratives and educational manuals, this collection sheds a new light on the subject. The coverage ranges from medieval to eighteenth

    Abstract: Professor Michael Billig is one of the most significant living figures in social psychology. His work spans thirty-five years, and has at times challenged conventional social scientific thinking on a range of key topics. Billig has influenced a wide range of fields including intergroup conflict, social attitudes and ideology, rhetoric, racism, nationalism, humour, psychoanalysis, and popular culture, but most significantly, his writing has not only influenced social psychologists, but is widely recognised by linguistics, sociologists, historians and cultural theorists. This book brings togethe

    Keywords: YouTube (Electronic resource) ; Internet videos ; Social aspects.. ; Online social networks ; Social aspects ; Electronic books ; Electronic books
    Abstract: Die Nutzung von YOUTUBE, dem derzeit meistbesuchten Videoportal weltweit, gehört für viele Internetuser längst zum Alltag: Selbstgedrehte Videos werden zur Schau gestellt, kommentiert, parodiert oder neu abgemischt. Dabei verkörpert die Plattform wie kaum eine zweite das 'Mitmach-Web' mit all seinen Nutzungsmöglichkeiten und Kommunikationsformen. Doch was passiert mit irritierenden Videos, die auf parodistische Art und Weise gegen Sexismus und andere gesellschaftliche Zustände protestieren? Welchen Effekt haben sie? Welche gesamtgesellschaftliche Bedeutung kommt Ihnen zu und wie reagiert die Community? Jennifer Eickelmann stellt sich diesen Fragen und untersucht die Wirkung parodistischer Videos auf die Wahrnehmung sozialer Probleme und die Möglichkeit, sich innerhalb des Portals mit ihnen auseinanderzusetzen. Kann das Internet leisten, was der Feminismus fordert: 'Neue Gleichheit im Netz - jenseits von Sexismus?'

    Abstract: Phantom limb pain is one of the most intractable and merciless pains ever known-a pain that haunts appendages that do not physically exist, often persisting with uncanny realness long after fleshy limbs have been traumatically, surgically, or congenitally lost. The very existence and ""naturalness"" of this pain has been instrumental in modern science's ability to create prosthetic technologies that many feel have transformative, self-actualizing, and even transcendent power.   In Phantom Limb , Cassandra S. Crawford critically examines phantom limb pain and its relationship to prosthetic inno

    Abstract: International sporting events, including the Olympic Games and the FIFA World Cup, have experienced profound growth in popularity and significance since the mid-twentieth century. Sports often facilitate diplomacy, revealing common interests across borders and uniting groups of people who are otherwise divided by history, ethnicity, or politics. In many countries, popular athletes have become diplomatic envoys. Sport is an arena in which international conflict and compromise find expression, yet the impact of sports on foreign relations has not been widely studied by scholars.In Diplomatic Gam

These children are called bacha posh: literally ""girls dressed as boys."" This practice offers families the freedom to allow their child to shop and workand in some cases, it saves them from the disgrace of not having a male heir.

    Abstract: Endlich weg vom Land - oder? Für Jugendliche, die in ländlichen Regionen aufwachsen, ist der Übergang von der Schule in die berufliche Ausbildung eine Gelegenheit, auszubrechen. Wie sieht es aber mit den Jugendlichen aus, die nicht abwandern? Wie kommt es zur Entscheidung, in der Gegend zu bleiben? Markus Wochnik zeigt an drei ausgewählten Biographien, welche Einflussfaktoren und Wirkungszusammenhänge besonders relevant sind. Soziale Rahmenbedingungen und gesellschaftliche Orientierungsmuster stehen dabei ebenso im Vordergrund wie der Bezug zur Heimat, der sich bei der Berufswahl zu einem ausgewachsenen Dilemma entwickeln kann. Wochnik leistet einen wertvollen Beitrag im Rahmen der bildungspolitischen Debatte über Mobilität und Flexibilität: Bei der systematischen Betrachtung von Berufswahl- und Migrationsprozessen sind nicht bloß Arbeitsmarktdaten und Selektionsprozesse wichtig - die sozialen und emotionalen Motive der Jugendlichen spielen eine mindestens ebenso große Rolle.

    Abstract: With the impact of accelerated globalization, digital technologies, mobility, and migration, the fields of Applied Linguistics, Language, and Intercultural Education have been shifting. One shift in need of further exploration is that of systematic and coherent reflexivity in researching language and culture. This unique and timely book thus examines the significance of reflexivity as an integral process, particularly when researching the multifaceted notions of multilingualism and interculturality in education. It also contributes to current critical approaches to representations of languages

    Abstract: In this challenging and provocative book, Steve Fuller contends that our continuing faith in science in the face of its actual history is best understood as the secular residue of a religiously inspired belief in divine providence. Our faith in science is the promise of a life as it shall be, as science will make it one day. Just as men once put their faith in God's activity in the world, so we now travel to a land promised by science. In ""Science"", Fuller suggests that the two destinations might be the same one. Fuller sympathetically explores what it might mean to live scientifically. Can

    Abstract: This book deals with reasons for the persistence of the practice of female genital cutting (FGC) among the Kurya in Tanzania. The author identifies contradictory understandings of meanings regarding the practice among government representatives, activists who attempt to curb it, and local people involved in traditional social institutions closely linked up with the practice. Existing intervention programmes lack the involvement of local community members in planning and implementation. The book concludes that local beliefs that are embedded in traditional discourse still have a strong influenc

    Abstract: Das Verhältnis zwischen Menschen und anderen Tieren hat zahlreiche Facetten, ist so alt wie der Mensch selbst und hat wiederum Einfluss auf zwischenmenschliche Beziehungen. Eine strenge Hierarchie lässt den Menschen als legitimen Herrscher erscheinen und tradiert dieses Verhältnis zumeist unhinterfragt; es wird im Rahmen der Sozialisation, unter anderem auch durch Sprache, fest in unseren Köpfen verankert. Als gewaltsames Herrschaftsverhältnis bietet das Verhältnis zwischen Menschen und anderen Tieren dabei Gewalt als ein legitimes Handlungsmittel an, welches zwar nicht auf Menschen übertragen werden soll, dessen bloße Existenz aber Modellcharakter für zwischenmenschliches Handeln haben kann. Ebenso haben friedliche Beziehungen zwischen Menschen zu anderen Tieren Modellcharakter. Viele Intellektuelle wie z. B. Immanuel Kant und Albert Einstein haben sich seit der Antike mit dem Verhältnis zwischen Menschen und anderen Tieren und dessen Einfluss auf den Menschen beschäftigt. Die meisten postulieren dabei ähnliche Zusammenhänge. Während gewaltsame Behandlung von nicht-menschlichen Tieren den Menschen verrohen lasse und seine Hemmschwelle zur Gewalt gegenüber anderen Menschen herabsenke, befördere der friedliche Umgang mit nichtmenschlichen Tieren ein friedliches zwischenmenschliches Miteinander. In der vorliegenden Studie betrachtet der Autor das Tier nicht aus der üblichen technisch-ökonomischen Perspektive, sondern wagt den seltenen Ansatz diese als Bedeutungsträger für den Menschen zu untersuchen. Er diskutiert dabei die folgenden Fragen: Kann eine friedliche und respektvolle Beziehung zu Tieren positive Auswirkungen auf ein zwischenmenschliches Miteinander haben? Haben gewalttätiger und verständnisloser Umgang mit ihnen negative Folgen für zwischenmenschlichen Umgang? Und was kann dies für globale Dimensionen bedeuten? Robert Pilgrim, M.Ed. wurde 1987 in Neustadt, Holstein geboren. Er befasste sich schon früh mit dem Verhältnis von Menschen und Tieren und untersuchte dessen Verbindungen in Bezug auf zwischenmenschliche Beziehungen und Verhaltensweisen. Viele philosophische Überlegungen, soziale Ablehnung und bisweilen leidenschaftliche Diskurse ließen ihn vertiefte Einblicke in die Zusammenhänge von der Welt des industrialisierten Systems, der Ausbeutung von nicht-menschlichen Tieren und sozialer Tradierung gewinnen. Sein Studium der Sonderpädagogik wurde von theoretischen und praktischen Erfahrungen in der Tierrechtsarbeit begleitet.

    DDC: 610.9515
    Keywords: Traditional medicine ; Himalaya Mountains Region.. ; Mountain people ; Health and hygiene ; Himalaya Mountains Region ; Electronic books ; Electronic books
    Abstract: This book discusses the perception of disease, healing concepts and the evolution of traditional systems of healing in the Himalayas of Himachal Pradesh, India. The chapters cover a diverse range issues: people and knowledge systems, healing in ancient scriptures, concept of sacredness and faith healing, food as medicament, presumptions about disease, ethno-botanical aspects of medicinal plants, collection and processing of herbs, traditional therapeutic procedures, indigenous Materia medica, etc. The book also discusses the diverse therapeutic procedures followed by Himalayan healers and their significance in the socio-cultural life of Himalayan societies.The World Health Organization defines traditional medicine as wisdom, skills, and practices based on theories, beliefs, and experiences indigenous to different cultures, used in the prevention, diagnosis, improvement or treatment of physical and mental illness and maintenance of health. In some Asian and African countries, 80% of the population depends on traditional medicine for primary health care. However, the knowledge of these conventional healing techniques and traditions associated with conveying this knowledge are slowly disappearing. The authors highlight the importance of safeguarding this indigenous knowledge in the cultural milieu of the Himachal Himalayas.This book will be an important resource for researchers in medical anthropology, biology, ethno-biology, ecology, community health, health behavior, psychotherapy, and Himalayan studies.

    Abstract: How far is scientific knowledge a product of social life? In addressing this question, the major contributors to the sociology of knowledge have agreed that the conclusions of science are dependent on social action only in a very special and limited sense. In Science and the Sociology of Knowledge Michael Mulkay's first aim is to identify the philosophical assumptions which have led to this view of science as special; and to present a systematic critique of the standard philosophical account of science, showing that there are no valid epistemological grounds for excluding scientific knowledge
