Dear Tom, my book "Big Data in Organizations and the Role of Human Resource Management” (http://www.oapen.org/search?identifier=625772) is not precisely about social sciences, however, it is about the theoretical understanding of big data in organisations. Besides that there are many references in it, that may be helpful for you. Best regards, Tobias _________________________________ Dr. Tobias M.

Data is increasingly likely to be a starting point for social scientists investigating the digital world, but what does this mean for theory, method and the relations between them? Any information and literature would be very welcome. Many thanks in advance!
