This text, in wich Max Weber explores questions of natural science and ergonmics from a sociological point of view, forms the central part of further from a sociological point of view, forms the central part of further works which revolved around the inquiry made by the Society for Social Policy in 1908, Survey concerning Selection and Adaption (Choice and Course of Occupation) for the Workers of Major Industrial Enterprises and which dealt with the methods of such inquiries.
