As we move through our modern world, the phenomenon we call
knowledge is always involved. Whether we talk of know-how,
technology, innovation, politics or education, it is the concept of
knowledge that ties them all together. But despite its ubiquity as
a modern trope we seldom encounter knowledge in itself. How is it
produced, where does it reside, and who owns it? Is knowledge
always beneficial, will we know all there is to know at some point
in the future, and does knowledge really equal power? This book
pursues an original approach to this concept that seems to define
so many aspects of modern societies. It explores the topic from a
distinctly sociological perspective, and traces the many ways that
knowledge is woven into the very fabric of modern society.
