Famed sociologist Talcott Parsons led some of the most renowned social scientists of the twentieth century to establish a new department for an interdisciplinary science at Harvard. This is a fascinating instructive tale of hubris, ego, and academic politics overlaid on Parsons's obsessive quest for an all-encompassing theory of social behavior.
