How do we deal with challenging life events? Working across
hundreds of research studies, Dealing With Change Through
Information Sculpting uncovers how people respond informationally
to major life transitions by examining our information behaviours -
how we provide, seek, assess, share, use, deny, avoid, and create
information - during times of personal change and explains the role
of these behaviours in reconstructing ourselves following a life
event. Dealing With Change Through Information Sculpting proposes
the theory of Information Sculpting to describe how we respond to
change and the information behaviours we use to create this
response, explaining how we construct solutions to life transitions
by a series of information behaviours that are used to gain a sense
of coherence, purpose, and value in life. Until now there has been
no text that provides an information focus on transitions across
the human life span. Dealing With Change Through Information
Sculpting looks at information behaviour in relationship creation
and breakdown, parenting, starting and ending work, developing
sexualities, becoming ill, being a victim of crime, and dying, to
show how our we sculpt information solutions that transform our
lives and transform ourselves. Supported by a bibliography of over
1,000 works, this book is a major reference point for those
interested in how we use information during the most significant
times in our lives.
