(1990) Max Weber's construction of social theory, Basingstoke, Palgrave Macmillan.
The Protestant and Kantian definitions of reality provided Weber both with the cognitive framework for his view of life and with a motivational structure. The world was mastered by reason, but intellect was accompanied by duty and the need for salvation. The sharpness of the conflict between rationality and irrationality was not a mere intellectual problem, it was a dilemma he felt deeply.
