Description
Richard Pring's Philosophy of Educational Research provides a thorough analysis of the nature of social science and educational enquiry. The author explores the links between research, practice, and policy, examining key philosophical concepts such as meaning, truth, and objectivity.
This updated edition takes into account new philosophical theories and the current political context for educational research, while retaining its focus on three central themes: the nature of social science in general; the nature of educational enquiry in particular; and the relationships between language, concepts, and practice/policy.
