Fashions in Science: Opinion Leaders and Collective Behavior in the Social Sciences, by Irwin Sperber, University of Minnesota Press, Minneapolis, 1990
Abstract
The author's main point is that "the scientific community, like the domains of costume adornment and automobile design, is profoundly influenced by …the play of fashion". As a radical sociologist, he clearly has an axe to grind about the organization of his discipline.
