from the review:
The book is determined to undertake a task for which the author argues Weber himself was unconstitutionally equipped – an exploration of the place of an individual in society and history. This, Weber believed, was the “atomic physics” of sociology, for with this focus on the individual comes a multiplicity of views and perspectives, and thereby, as with physics itself, inherent indeterminacy.
