Yay. Good question. Whenever I'm browsing the soft-science shelves,
skimming, whatnot, I look for stories - case studies. The habit got
started a long time back, when I was reading reams of Piaget and Vygotsky.
So I think the answer to the question is "not much". In fact with some
writers, the theory (?) is already implicit in the selection of case
studies, so I can skip the exegesis.
