Studying Human Behavior: How Scientists Investigate Agression & Sexuality

Studying Human Behavior: How Scientists Investigate Agression & Sexuality, Helen E. Longino, The University of Chicago Press. BF199.L58

In Studying Human Behavior, Helen E. Longino enters into the complexities of human behavioral research, a domain still dominated by the age-old debate of “nature versus nurture.” Rather than supporting one side or another or attempting to replace that dichotomy with a different framework for understanding behavior, Longino focuses on how scientists study it, specifically sexual behavior and aggression, and asks what can be known about human behavior through empirical investigation.
