Invisible Crisis of Contemporary Society: Reconstructing Sociology's Fundamental Assumptions

By Bernard S. Phillips and Louis C. Johnston

Book Overview

Is there a growing gap in the world between cultural aspirations and their fulfilment, a gap that is increasing social problems of all kinds? Aiming to answer this question, this book shows that a static metaphysical stance or worldview is largely responsible for that gap, and that an alternative worldview can work to close that gap.
