Is human social reality the object domain of the human sciences essentially opaque to the explanatory method of nomological objectivity that characterizes the physical sciences. Do historical and cultural underpinnings of human existence severely restrain the ambition of objectivity in the human sciences. Or is there a sui generis paradigm of social objectivity in social enquiry such as illustrated by Marxism and ethnomethodology. Besides do diversity of traditions constrain social understanding in a way that inevitably results in cultural relativism. What does understanding tradition consist in including whatever we might mean by the Indian tradition. These questions about humanity and tradition are dealt with in this book from a variety of interesting perspectives. Together these various modes on understanding provide an illuminating account of human self understanding in social enquiry. 214 pp.…

In his book, Bijoy Misra has managed to retrace and recall those disconnections and the value systems which led to their genesis. He has described how it is that human beings join and divide, the grounds upon which they merge and separate and how our emotions are both created and diminished by such small irreversible details of the experience. If we are made for the love we are also unmade by its loss or absence, whether such love is spiritual, moral, political, artistic, or simple earthly affection.Misra is a cartographer of such transformations, their particular vicissitudes and their minute and exacting metaphors; just as the acoustic in the universe informs how human beings speak and how birds and other animals sing, so our author has offered us a precisely modulated depiction of how his own mental and emotional inheritance came to be composed during childhood and youth in Orissa, and simultaneously by the greatness of the Indian cosmos and its ancient culture. This book is the story of that attempt at repossession and discovery.In his book, the author has cataloged this journey, a voyage towards the ancestral conditions which once so informed him, perhaps even from before he was born, and he has portrayed how it is to pursue such an inquiry, such an odyssey of recovery and comprehension. What is recorded within these pages is the universal effort to exist and to endure not simply in the present which we inhabit but simultaneously in the past-with its necessary compulsions-as well as in the future with all its ideals and aspiration.…
