Sociology studies human behaviour and society. The writer points out that Sociology also is a science; it subscribes to the accepted scientific method of the other natural sciences, however there is much debate and contention about the nature of the scientific method and whether it is entirely applicable to sociological discourse. The writer explains the debate and concludes that sociology is a science - but this statement has to take into account the changing view of what science is.
