Quotes

• “This book is not a history. Rather it is an attempt to establish analytical tools that will assist the understanding of history”
• “I came into history from a primary concern with mathematics and science. This has been a tremendous help to me as a person and as a historian, although it must be admitted it has served to make my historical interpretations less conventional than may be acceptable of many of my colleagues in the field.”
• “After years of work in both areas of study, I concluded that the social sciences were different, in many important ways, from the natural sciences, but that the same scientific methods were applicable in both areas, and, indeed, that no very useful work could be done in either area except by scientific methods.”
• “No scientist ever believes that he has the final answer or the ultimate truth on anything.”
• “It is not easy to tear any event out of the context of the universe in which it occurred without detaching from it some factor that influenced it.”
• “Even today few scientists and perhaps even fewer nonscientists realize that science is a method and nothing else.”
