Summary:This book examines the role of theory in inferential empirical work in economics and the social sciences in genera--that is, any research that uses raw data to go beyond the mere statement of fact or the tabulation of statistics. Considered in particular are the limits that eschewing the use of theory places on inference--Publisher.
