About Explanation and Human Action
Alfred Louch's classic demolition of the scientific pretenses of the social studies remains unmatched in its philosophical insight and polemical impact. Since the first edition of Explanation and Human Action, fashions and theories in social science have changed, but Louch's fundamental analysis remains valid: understanding human actions can never be achieved by simply taking over theories and experimental procedures from the physical sciences. For human actions have an ineradicable moral interior which can never be revealed by behavioral externalities. For the Cybereditions edition of Explanation and Human Action, Louch has included a new introduction discussing the latest turns in the human sciences toward evolutionary psychology. He remains refreshingly skeptical of any dogma, no matter how seductive, that pretends to reduce the conceptual processes of human agency to neurons, natural selection, or replicating molecules. While neither Luddite nor anti-science, Louch uses the sharpest tools of philosophical analysis to show the limits of science applied to the human condition.
