Overview
This book is a composite thesis on social sciences. In an age where the hard sciences are being prioritized for developmental purposes, this book is a welcome commentary on the centrality of social sciences. The book highlights the specific disciplines that comprise the social sciences. It also highlights the ways in which the study of human relationships and human nature can aid in the developmental process. The book therefore makes the case for including the social sciences into the highest echelons of the education system.
