Doing Good Social Science

This book takes readers on a personal and thought-provoking journey and empowers readers to become unshakeable, free-thinking scholars.

Drawing from nearly two decades of experience in research and mentorship, this book shares insights gained from creating 'immersive moments' to challenge conventional methodology and social theory.

In doing so, it integrates ideas from classical and contemporary scholarship across various disciplines, bringing them to life through engaging field notes, interviews, and often humorous examples.

The book outlines how to cultivate disciplined and systematic scholarship on complex topics while critiquing the 'wonky' practices that often pervade modern academia.

Part One advocates for a more scientific approach to social science, offering guiding principles for scholars striving to understand social life.
