What is the role of causality in understanding in social science? Professor Manicas brings the idea of causality and the role that it plays in the physical sciences to bear on inquiry in social sciences. The result is an entirely different conception of the task and nature of social science. In this breathtaking volume, Peter T. Manicas offers a reassessment of the problem of explanation from a realist perspective. By offering a host of concrete illustrations and examples of critical ideas this book will greatly appeal to the non-specialist reader .
