Summary: This book-or better, the body of experiences it proposes seeks to communicate some knowledge of general psychological principles, and some skill in applying that knowledge to social and organizational situations. Science tries to illuminate concrete reality by disclosing the general laws and principles that make the reality what it is. The generalization gives meaning to the concrete instance, but the instance carries the generalization into the real world--makes it usable. Experiencing social situations and then analyzing that experience brings generalization and concrete reality into effective union.
