The major themes of Gordon Tullock's 1996 book The Organization of Inquiry are identified. Tullock's treatment of the philosophy of science is criticized, as is his explanation for the backwardness of the social sciences relative to the natural sciences. The paper closes with a listing of some of Tullock's proposals for the reform of science. © 2007 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
