About this product

Product Information

This is an introductory account of social theory and the central role of enlightenment within it. Tom Osborne argues that: contemporary social theory can only fail when viewed as a science of society , and rather than focusing upon the question of society or even modernity should focus on the question of human nature. The most immediate and central topic of such a social theory should be the question of enlightenment. However, the book departs from traditional accounts locating the vocation of social theory in the system of values established in the original Enlightenment by the French philosophers and others. Rather it makes a strong argument for the ethical status of enlightenment, going on to analyze particular regimes of enlightenment in modernity, namely those associated with the social ethics of science, expertise, intellect and art.

The book is in "reasonable" condition! not vg condition as described- front cover permanent fold over on arrival, packed this way ? pages are yellowing. Seller may be best to place a description "proper" of actual book being sold on the listing with photos so buyers know what they are receiving for the price paid.
