A History and Philosophy of the Social Sciences by Peter T Manicas

Manicas argues that ideology is the defining characteristic of the social sciences in this critical review of the discipline. He contends that social science was originally based on a false ideal of science and that the historical assumptions of it are in general, too "Eurocentric".
Peter T. Manicas is Professor of Social Science at the University of Hawaii.
