A new book by Alexander Betts that seeks to introduce social science and make it accessible to a wide audience has just been published by Oxford University Press.
Taking an interdisciplinary approach, Social Science: A Very Short Introduction offers an accessible overview of social science, explaining how methods and theory from different disciplines can be applied and combined to address major global challenges.
Looking to the future, it unpacks cutting-edge themes such as behavioural science and human data science, and explores the ways in which social science can work collaboratively with the natural sciences and humanities.
