Description
This Very Short Introduction to social science offers an accessible overview of human behaviour and its study. It explains how methods and theory from different disciplines can be applied and combined to address major global challenges.
By exploring key questions such as why people make certain choices, how societies function, and the impact of social science on real-world issues, this book aims to equip students, scholars, and practitioners with the tools to analyse, interpret, and undertake social science research.
Drawing upon inspiring examples, it shows how social scientists can have a real-world impact and change the world for the better. This introduction unpacks cutting-edge themes such as behavioural science, human data science, and interdisciplinary collaboration between social sciences and other disciplines.
