When this book was originally published in 2006, Epistemetrics was
not as yet a scholarly discipline. With regard to scientific
information there was the discipline of scientometrics, represented
by a journal of that very name. Science, however, had a monopoly on
knowledge. Although it is one of our most important cognitive
resources, it is not our only one. While scientometrics is a
centerpiece of epistemetrics, it is not the whole of it. Nicholas
Rescher's endeavor to quantify knowledge is not only of interest in
itself, but is also instructive in bringing into sharper relief the
nature of and the explanatory rationale for the limits that
unavoidably confront our efforts to advance the frontiers of
knowledge. In particular, his book demonstrates the limitations of
human knowledge and will be of great value to scholars working in
this area.
