Alcoholism Research by Graduate Students: A Synthesis of Twenty-One Dissertations at Fordham University School of Social Service Concerning the Alcoholic Personality, the Families of Alcoholics, and the Treatment of Alcoholics, 1955-1965
Abstract
The contributors of cumulative or constructive literature systematically build on earlier material using the efforts of other thinkers to systematize their observations. The emphasis is on the development of an idea, thus adding a dimension of depth. The value of this type of literature is that progress is made in thought. If new issues are to be achieved, old issues must be evaluated. This new insight is what a profession needs in order to develop more precise understanding of its activities.
