The introduction where the article describes and defines human science quickly becomes redundant in it's definitions and includes some grammatical mistakes. Distinctions between human sciences and humanities are unclear. In the introduction, history and philosophy are included subjects under the Human Sciences, but later categorized as subjects in the humanities. The section in which the meaning of 'science' is articulated is too long and diverts the readers attention away from the main discourse. Overall, this article includes information that is unclear or not relevant to defining the Human Sciences. It's as if the writer copy and pasted excerpts from various sources, edited and paraphrased them, rather than assimilating the information and writing a comprehensive discourse. Many of the citation links do not work, though, they all appear to be from reputable publications.
