There are no universals but, nevertheless, we can know 19
Models and measures: a first pass 21
Contingency and method retroduction and retrodiction 25
Conclusion 27

How We Measure 29
Death to the variable 29
State space 32
Classification 34
Sensible and useful measuring 37

Sources 57
Conclusion 58
4 Measuring the Complex World: The Character of Social Surveys 61
Knowledge production the survey as process 63
Models from surveys beyond the flowgraph? 66
Representative before random sampling in the real world 72
Conclusion 77
Interpreting Quantitative Data
5 Probability and Quantitative Reasoning 79
Objective probability versus the science of clues 80
Single case probabilities back to the specific 84
Gold standard or dross? 84
Understanding Head Start 88
