Abstract
-
This dissertation is an inquiry into the relations among the natural and cultural sciences. It explores the relations among Mead's pragmatist philosophical-scientific cosmology, classical and contemporary social theory, and recent attempts at unified field theories in the physical, biological, and human sciences. Mead's symbolic interactionist social psychology of the self is located within his metaphysics of sociality, and his views of relativity and quantum physics.
