Analogies in Science, (Indianapolis, 1966).
9. For Marx see, in particular, "The 1857 Introduction” to
Grundrisse, (Harmondsworth, 1973) and "1859 Preface" to A
Contribution to a Critigue of Political Economy. (London,
1971). For Aristotle see, Metaphysics, (Oxford, 1924).
10. I do not at this stage want to bring up the hoary
dilemma which once again seems to haunt the social sciences,
1.e. the dilemma of science versus common-sense. I believe
that the polarisation and dichotomisation of the problem is
misconceived. Common-sense may be established in such a
manner that it reflects, albeit simplictically, scientific
knowledge (but it is not in itself scientific knowledge),
e.g. most people understand that if they do not eat food or
drink over a sustained period of time then they will
eventually die. This requires a minimum knowledge of the
dietary and energy requirements of the human body without
necessarily being well grounded in knowledge of human
physiology or biology. Clearly this type of knowledge has a
scientific basis without itself being that basis.
