In JLS' reading list re "social constructivism", is 

Dawkins, R., 1976. The selfish gene, New York: Oxford University Press.>
I've looked at this book. In what way is it any kind of exercise in "social 
constructivism"?*
DL*It does have some harsh words for academic cheats and other low behaviour in 
academics - and that is before we get to sheer point-missing foolishness, like 
Mary Midgley and her conceptual-analytic criticism that genes can't be selfish.
