- catalog abstract ""Social fuzziology explores the fuzziness inherent in what we know about ourselves and society, about the sources and nature of our experience, of our thoughts and feelings, drives for understanding and urges to create and realise our potential. This kind of fuzziness is at the very essence of human existence, therefore it affects any field of our activity, be it engineering design of intelligent systems or social inquiry into enigmas of life. The book draws on the full range of the social sciences, including some of the most up-to-date work on escalating complexities of post modern life, e.g. new information technologies in the global world, new forms of consciousness and identity, new relationships between humans, machines, nature and environment. The volume is interdisciplinary, combining expertise from Fuzzy Logic and the Postmodern Social Sciences to outline, synthesise and implement the challenging concepts and methods of Social Fuzziology. It gives readers from the social sciences a comprehensive, exciting and practical guide for applying the insights and approaches of Fuzzy Logic, while bringing a rich body of social problems and concepts to the agenda for researchers in Fuzzy Logic and related field."--Jacket.".
