Description

Explore the evolution of how we understand human connection in The Age of the Social: The Discovery of Society and The Ascendance of a New Episteme. Published by Routledge, this work examines the historical shift of the concept of society as a scientific reality. Starting with the foundational nineteenth-century theories of Durkheim, Marx, and Weber, the book tracks how the idea of the social has moved beyond traditional sociology. It investigates how modern biology and neuroscience have taken center stage in shaping our current understanding of social structures. This text provides a deep look into how the social has gained a foothold across multiple scientific disciplines. It is an essential resource for readers interested in the intersection of philosophy, biology, and the history of social science. By looking at how biologists and neuroscientists have driven this prominence, the book offers a unique perspective on the current state of scientific thought regarding society.
