More about the book

The collection of essays examines the author's significant contributions to the sociology of various fields, including science, mathematics, and robotics. It highlights his strong social constructionist approach to complex issues, from the sociology of objectivity to a social brain paradigm. The author engages with prominent figures in science studies, situating his work against major paradigms while rejecting transcendental ideas, including Platonism in mathematics. His interdisciplinary insights, influenced by both classical and postmodern thought, serve as a vital resource for researchers in sociology and related disciplines.
