From my ignorant-about-social sciences POV I agree they seem to be hard to build informed books around that stand out from ignorant speculation, but for example this soesn't seem to be a problem for biology and linguistics. And I can't see that geology, say, has a lot of controversy around it, it's just that people seem more interested in writing about The Journey To The Centre Of The Earth than anything well researched :)
