Feeling and Form in Social Life shows how a vigorous and practical science ofsociety can be built. Drawing in part from the philosophy of Susanne LangerLloyd Sandelands reveals human societies to be forms of life known intuitivelyas feelings of a whole rather than as observed interactions of persons. Thesefeelings which are personal and subjective are made public and objective bythe uniquely human capacity for artistic abstraction. Through art people turninvisible feelings and forms of society into visible objects and performancesthat can be shared and studied scientifically. «
