  • Deconstructing Ethnography

    Towards a Social Methodology for Ubiquitous Computing and Interactive Systems Design

    by Graham Button, Andy Crabtree, Mark Rouncefield, Peter Tolmie ...
    Series series Computer Science (R0)
    This book aims to deconstruct ethnography to alert systems designers, and other stakeholders, to the issues presented by new approaches that move beyond the studies of ‘work’ and ‘work practice’ within the social sciences (in particular anthropology and sociology). The theoretical and methodological apparatus of the social sciences distort the social and cultural world as lived in and understood ... Read more

  • Into the Wild: Beyond the Design Research Lab

    Edited by Alan Chamberlain, Andy Crabtree ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This edited collection opens up new intellectual territories and articulates the ways in which academics are theorising and practicing new forms of research in ‘wild’ contexts. Many researchers are choosing to leave the familiarity of their laboratory-based settings in order to pursue in-situ studies ‘in the wild’ that can help them to better understand the implications of their work in real-world ...

  • Why Society is a Complex Matter

    Meeting Twenty-first Century Challenges with a New Kind of Science

    by Philip Ball ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Society is complicated. But this book argues that this does not place it beyond the reach of a science that can help to explain and perhaps even to predict social behaviour. As a system made up of many interacting agents – people, groups, institutions and governments, as well as physical and technological structures such as roads and computer networks – society can be regarded as a complex system. ...

  • Modelling Norms

    by Corinna Elsenbroich, Nigel Gilbert ...
    Series series Social Sciences (R0)
    The book focusses on questions of individual and collective action, the emergence and dynamics of social norms and the feedback between individual behaviour and social phenomena. It discusses traditional modelling approaches to social norms and shows the usefulness of agent-based modelling for the study of these micro-macro interactions. Existing agent-based models of social norms are discussed ... Read more
