内容説明

Three important areas that are impacting research in the social sciences are examined in this book. First, the author discusses changes in the structure and use of time as a major societal mechanism. This is followed by an analysis of the growing link between scientific-technological knowledge and its practical application in a wider social context. Finally, the author examines some of the difficulties arising in the dialogue between producers and consumers of social science knowledge within an ever-changing context.
