Book Synopsis The Human Group by : George Caspar Homans
Book excerpt: The study of even the smallest groups is extremely complex. Homans concentrates on certain activities and processes he observes in five carefully selected and differentiated case studies and from them draws common patterns and ideas that serve as the bases of testable propositions. In all five cases, Homans selects comparable phenomena for analysis with a contextually different emphasis and elaboration each time.
