"Making It Count" is a must-read for social researchers looking to reform empirical research to contribute to society's rigorous understanding. Stanley Lieberson undertakes the daunting task of reexamining the model of empirical research and mold it into an activity that contributes as much as possible to a rigorous understanding of society. He redefines some undoable questions previously studied, categorizes them into four types, and suggests successful empirical alternatives while keeping in mind the doctrine of the undoable. The book's most distinctive feature is how Lieberson reconceptualizes research to achieve a more accurate articulation of social phenomena.
