261“symbolic generalizations” (Kuhn, 1962:182) and “values” commonly used in each fieldwhen judging books. For Kuhn, commitment to such values provides a sense ofcommunity within the discipline (ibid.: 184).Also, differences were found in the way readers are provided with backgroundinformation related to the nature of the topic discussed in the book. The greater amountof detail and exemplification provided in linguistics (and less emphatically ineconomics) may indicate the reviewer’s awareness that the book and the BR will have aspecialized readership with which she shares a high level of knowledge, but stillconsiders necessary to call the reader’s attention to certain aspects of the discipline thatmay not be as readily available, i.e., not belonging to that portion of commonknowledge. A greater reliance on exemplification may result from the writer’s belief thatthe lower the audience level, the more it relies on examples for exposition (Nwogu,1990:178). Thus the reviewer assumes a didactic position in discussing the book,attempting to explain or clarify concepts that may be unfamiliar to the reader. Suchconcepts are referred to by the terms in parentheses or apposition.In comparison, chemistry reviewers tend to be more symmetrical in theirrelationship with the reader in that few dated references are provided and the conceptsand nomenclature used do not seem to demand further exemplification reflecting arecognition of the field as a cohesive culture.The ideal of persuasion in economics points toward an emphasis on mathematics(quantification) and method (theoretical principles and empirical evidences) in the study of
262social science, probably as a way to assure that the discipline will be regarded as “real”science ix .In chemistry, recency in publication is a decisive criterion of adequacy used byreviewers in producing arguments to praise or blame new publications. Correspondingly,the innovative character of clear and testable approaches constitutes a criterion inlinguistics. Mathematics and method, recency, and innovative approaches were noticed inthe corpus as crucial and indeed correspond to BR editors’ view of the three fields.The analysis of BRs across fields revealed certain disciplinary consensual ideals thatcharacterize disciplinary cultures. Book reviewing as an academic activity seems to takeinto account specific disciplinary consensual ideals such as ’clear and testablepropositions’ in linguistics, ‘persuasive and attractive rhetoric’ in economics, and‘comprehensive and recent data’ in chemistry. These ideals impose correspondingdemands on reviewers in terms of which values to introduce in producing justificatoryarguments for recommending new books, innovations in the current repertory of literaryproduction in the discipline. Around this dynamic socialization between author, publisher,reviewer, and reader, reviewing journals as professional forums offer opportunities foraccepted “reason-producing” procedures to be used to create consensus around newmaterials. Finally, the very consensual ideals establish the criteria of adequacy to beapplied in judging the arguments produced by reviewers to support innovations in thediscipline.The notion of consensual ideals as the force that brings together practitionersbelonging to the same discipline is concurrent to the idea of intensity underlying Becher’s
