Description
Critical Realism: An Introduction to Roy Bhaskar's Philosophy
This readable introduction to Roy Bhaskar's philosophy explores how to overcome narrow, human-centered approaches in European thought. Andrew Collier expounds and defends the main concepts of Bhaskar's critical realism.
The book examines the philosophy of experimental science, discussing the stratification of nature and its implications for the study of the world by human sciences such as linguistics, psychoanalysis, economics, and politics.
