Research on Adulthood and Aging: The Human Science ApproachL. Eugene Thomas SUNY Press, 01 հնվ, 1989 թ. - 249 էջ By borrowing from a wide range of disciplines such as psychology, sociology, anthropology, psychiatry, and the humanities, this book gives a more "human," personal voice to the many experiences of aging. The result is a new sort of social science research, one which often reads more like literature than social science. Indeed, the author uses a wide variety of techniques borrowed from the humanities, from hermeneutics to oral histories, in addition to the more traditional social science methods. |
