Using the Strong Programme developed in Edinburgh in the 1970s clarifies how to do sociology of science freed from Enlightenment paradigms of testing for Truth. This paper uses, as an example, the case of Lewis Binford and his wife (in the 1960s) Sally Rosen, revealing Rosen's work to make Lewis's writing clear and persuasive. Rosen's work was the efficient cause of Lewis Binford's success with the New Archaeology.
