"Kurt Goldstein (1879-1965) was a neurologist who developed a comprehensive, holistic methodology of science. He described his ideas in The Organism and, in shorter form, in Human Nature. Goldstein was particularly aware of how method affects the results attained in science. His clear critique of unreflective reductionism is masterful and at the same time he shows how holism is a more rigorous scientific approach, since at all times it incorporates the awareness of method within the scientific endeavor." --Publisher
