Hi, DUH! Yes, research is reductionistic. Didn't you know that? You asked: "Do you really think that all researchers have such a reductionistic view?"
Are you just looking for a way to attack or do you see a flaw in my statement: "What is it then that sets it apart? It is the philosophy - the idea on when, and why to do this or that technique. It is the relationship between people, as learned and practiced, that makes it different..."
What would you suggest we research about what I did in the work you viewed in Aug 98? Perhaps you could say, and I could comment, and we can thus narrow-down the difference between what I am saying and what you think you are hearing in my writing.
