ABSTRACT
The range of variation within the setting factors is subject to change by virtue of changes that take place in a particular set of setting factors and are explicable without reference to the variations within the setting. The "human social" level would have to do with those variations that occur within the limits set by human heredity and the nonhuman environment. Perhaps the most famous example of premature reductionism in human social analysis has been the case of biological determinism. One of the problems that has beset social science from its earliest development is the preoccupation with therapy. The extreme fruitfulness of even some disproved theories in science indicates that for those interested in science there is no meaningful distinction between constructive and destructive criticism. Perhaps the greatest difference between systems of analysis and systems of theory is that the primary interest in a system of analysis lies in its use as a tool for developing theories or systems of theories.
