Its a good read, points are well made. The attempt by social scientists to objectify their 'mind gaze' to match the objectifying capacities of the natural science colleagues, in order to strive for greater legitimacy and stature in their results. To make their science more 'harder' and 'sure', eliminating the 'human' out of it and propelling the goodness of mathematics.
