Black Labor Migration in Caribbean Guatemala
In graduate school, I had the 1964 version of this book assigned in my research methods course. This was the book, then, that introduced me to the philosophy of science. I rather liked its bias toward emphasizing what researchers try to do rather than what philosophers "think" that they should do. My colleagues and I also appreciated his emphasis on the "autonomy of inquiry, (Page 3) ". . .the principle that the pursuit of truth is accountable to nothing and to no one not a part of that pursuit itself."
The book is, for a work on philosophy of science, lucidly written. Even after the passage of decades, it still reads pretty well.
