By A Customer
This review is from: Sex, Love, and Health in America: Private Choices and Public Policies (Hardcover)
This is what social science should be.First, take a topic every one is interested in and that is genuinely important. Next, get the best possible data about it -- quantitative and qualitative. Think really hard about it, taking seriously both past academic and popular writing on the subject. Then find new ways of putting things together, and teach us new things about the world. Then write, rewrite, edit and reedit until your prose is tight, precise, means exactly what you want it to mean, and is a pleasure to read. That's what the authors of this book did. I heartily recommend this book -- you'll learn stuff, and have great material for dinner conversation for week. |
