Description

Explore the deep philosophical foundations of economic science with Economic Methodology and Freedom to Choose by Professor O'Sullivan. Originally published in 1987 as part of the Routledge Revivals series, this work offers a rigorous examination of the methods used in economics and other human sciences. This book provides a refreshing alternative for students and scholars who find modern mathematical modeling limiting. Instead of focusing solely on game theory, O'Sullivan uses a dialectical approach rooted in the Socratic-Platonic tradition to examine how we understand economic reality. It serves as a strong counterpoint to postmodernism by offering a clear, structured investigation into the roots of scientific inquiry. Whether you are a student of economic methodology or a professional interested in the philosophy of science, this reissue brings a vital perspective back to the academic conversation. It is an essential resource for those seeking to understand the core principles that govern economic thought and the freedom of choice within social sciences.
