The study of expertise weaves its way through various communities
of practice, across disciplines, and over millennia. To date, the
study of expertise has been primarily concerned with how human
beings perform at a superior level in complex environments and
sociotechnical systems, and at the highest levels of proficiency.
However, more recent research has continued the search for better
descriptions, and causal mechanisms that explain the complexities
of expertise in context, with a view to translating this
understanding into useful predictions and interventions capable of
improving the performance of human systems as efficiently as
possible. The Oxford Handbook of Expertise provides a comprehensive
picture of the field of Expertise Studies. It offers both
traditional and contemporary perspectives, and importantly, a
multidiscipline-multimethod view of the science and engineering
research on expertise. The book presents different perspectives,
theories, and methods of conducting expertise research, all of
which have had an impact in helping us better understand expertise
across a broad range of domains. The Handbook also describes how
researchers and practitioners have addressed practical problems and
societal challenges. Throughout, the authors have sought to
demonstrate the heterogeneity of approaches and conceptions of
expertise, to place current views of expertise in context, to show
how these views can be used to address current issues, and to
examine ways to advance the study of expertise. The Oxford Handbook
of Expertise is an essential resource both to those wanting to gain
an up-to-date knowledge of the science of expertise and those
wishing to study experts.
