{"product_id":"nature-and-sociology","title":"NATURE AND SOCIOLOGY","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"van-product-description\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eNature has become increasingly central to social thinking. From the social implications of environmental degradation to the plethora of issues raised by biotechnology; genomics, neuroscience and health, the 'natural' world is increasingly difficult to ignore for sociologists and social scientists. In addition to a wide-ranging treatment of this field, this ground-breaking text presents fresh perspectives that challenge the way we think about the relationship between 'time', 'nature' and 'society'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlthough the natural and social are inevitably intertwined, Tim Newton argues that we should be open to the possibility of difference between our perception of the natural and social world. In so doing, he contests accepted tenets, such as an overriding need for anti-dualism, and underscores the limitations of current approaches such as social constructionism and realism. In addition, he engages with the burgeoning debates on new genetics and neuroscience, takes the material world and human biology seriously, and addresses the issues of interdisciplinary that are likely to arise in any longer term attempt to work across the social and natural world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNature and Sociology will be of great interest to students of a variety of disciplines including Sociology and Social Science, Human Geography, Social and Biological Anthropology; and the Natural Sciences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vanguard Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42602702602276,"sku":"0415366830","price":1319.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0739\/4823\/3764\/files\/0415366830-1.jpg?v=1757422313","url":"https:\/\/vanguardbooks.com\/products\/nature-and-sociology","provider":"Vanguard Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
