This book is a comprehensive analysis of the social and psychological processes that shape human behavior and society. The author introduces the concept of "residues" and "derivations" as the main drivers of human actions and societal change. He argues that residues, innate characteristics within individuals, are more stable and influential in shaping social phenomena, while derivations are the justifications or explanations people give for their actions. The book further delves into the classification of residues and the role they play in economics, politics, and social dynamics.
