some (many? most?) folks maintain that science consists of those areas
of a discipline in which there exists reasonable predictability,
'boyle's law' in physicial sciences - for example -
which can produce exact prediction of increase in pressure as gas is
heated degree by degree (physical sciences are not always so
precise)...

few such 'laws' as such exist in social sciences, is quantity theory -
volume or amount of a product remains constant and demand also is
constant, price will rise as amount of money and credit in circulation
increases - money an example (assuming i have expressed theory
correctly)...   poli-sci guy michael hoover
