Casualties of Causality

More about the book

Focusing on the critique of causality in social sciences, the book examines the prevailing belief that causal studies hold greater importance than other research methods. It highlights the limitations of a narrow definition of causality and the simplistic rules guiding causal claims. By dissecting the interconnected ideas that support this dominant perspective, the author underscores the significant drawbacks it poses to the field. The work serves as a resource for advanced students and researchers who are troubled by the implications of The Causality Syndrome.
