This book is an expanded and revised edition of the author's critically acclaimed volume Nuts and Bolts for the Social Sciences. In twenty-six succinct chapters, Jon Elster provides an account of the nature of explanation in the social sciences. He offers an overview of key explanatory mechanisms in the social sciences, relying on hundreds of examples and drawing on a large variety of sources-psychology, behavioral economics, biology, political science, historical writings, philosophy and fiction. Written in accessible and jargon-free language, Elster aims at accuracy and clarity while eschewing formal models.

解釋力上非常有野心,理論抽象上很有建樹的著作。從理性和有限理性的角度,解釋人類社會中方方麵麵的理性和看似非理性的行為。對於經濟學專業或理性選擇學派的人,讀這本書很順暢,也很長見識,因為還引用到瞭心理學和神經科學的一些成果。
评分value the first two chapters.
评分翻過:作者是Raymond Aron的學生。1 can't rely on functional explanation, which uses consequence as cause; 2 rational- choice theory has less explanatory power.
