ABSTRACT
Sociology, though it no longer claims to be the all-inclusive science of society (still less a scientia scientiarum), does claim to be synoptic. We have, therefore, to consider in somewhat more detail than we did in the first chapter, how it is or should be related to the other social sciences and to other disciplines concerned with the social life of man. In the following pages I shall first discuss its relations with two other general sciences, social anthropology and psychology, then its relations with two of the special social sciences, economics and political science, and finally its relations with history and philosophy.
