Focusing on the philosophical foundations of value, this volume explores the intersection of logic, social sciences, and a pragmatic theory of value. It distinguishes between intrinsic and potential value, linking empirical research on quality of life to American pragmatist philosophy. Key topics include decision-making processes in committees, ethical considerations in belief formation, critiques of classical economic rationality, and the establishment of a formal accounting system for scientific research. It also outlines the organization of the Social Sciences Federation of Canada.
