Book Description:
|
Sociology has long sought to find out how acting in a situation and observing that situation may differ and nevertheless belong to a single kind of social operation. Spencer-Brown's Law of Form provides one way to conceive of such an operation, and this book is the first to make sociological use of this mathematical calculus of form.
