paperback. Critically examines the theses of those who debunk the idea of rational explanation. This book argues that neither relativists, sceptics, nihilists, sociologists of 'knowledge' nor the postmodernists successfully debunk the claims of rational explanation, far from it: these theorists presuppose much of the theory of methodology they deny.

Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 240 x 160 x 30. Weight in Grams: 814.
