I'd really like to know. :)
Typically, practitioners of science treat the concerns raised by these disciplines in a very defensive manner. I don't mean to use "Philosophy" and "Sociology" interchangeably here, although that wouldn't be entirely wrong.
In short, I'm really only interested in finding out how you'd define science and the scientific method. This means talking about the nature of scientific facts in relation to social facts. It is also to talk about facts--"What is a fact?" In other words, where do you stand on the question of "universal / scientific objectivity."
I hope this makes sense :)
