Typing Social Scientists

Mitroff and Kilmann offer an eye-opening and elegant means of typing scientific thinkers. This has import in that it clariefies the fact that there are a variety of types of scientists, indicating that there are alternate forms of science, rather than one.They clearly present their concepts which I found exciting and a new way of conceiving others (and myself) within science.I recommend this as both a good book to cognitively reorient those whose views of science have become stultified and as a means of providing new scientists with a respect for types other than those adhering to the fundamental hypotheticodeductive methodology of prominence.
