Soft cover. Condition: Good. First edition, first printing of this interdisciplinary collection examining the philosophical and methodological problems involved in applying scientific methods to the study of human beings. Published in the Studies of the Person series and identified on the title page as addressing issues in the philosophy of the human sciences. Edited by William R. Coulson and Carl R.
