Foundations of the economic and social history of the United States: Apologia

Albers, Scott (2013): Foundations of the economic and social history of the United States: Apologia.

Abstract

This set of three volumes argues that the mind – human consciousness – may be measured by considering mathematically the aggregate of that consciousness, i.e. social history. From this beginning theme of discussion three questions must arise.

1. How might this measurement be made?

2. Of what value is this measurement? and

3. How does this measurement affect our present understanding of the reality in which we live?

Each of these three volumes attempts to provide answers to one of these questions.
