'Knowledge Management Foundations' is just what it claims, the
first attempt to provide a secure intellectual footing for the
myriad of practices called "knowledge management." A breath of
fresh air from the usual KM gurus, Fuller openly admits that the
advent of KM is a mixed blessing that often amounts to the conduct
of traditional management by subtler means. However, Fuller's deep
understanding of both the history of management theory and
knowledge production more generally enables him to separate the
wheat from the chaff of the KM literature.
This ground-breaking book will prove of interest to both academics
and practitioners of knowledge management. It highlights the ways
in which KM has challenged the values associated with knowledge
that academics have taken for granted for centuries. At the same
time, Fuller resists the conclusion of many KM gurus, that the
value of knowledge lies in whatever the market will bear in the
short term. He pays special attention to how information technology
has not only facilitated knowledge work but also has radically
altered its nature. There are chapters devoted to the revolution in
intellectual property and an evaluation of peer review as a quality
control mechanism. The book culminates in a positive re-evaluation
of universities as knowledge producing institutions from which the
corporate sector still has much to learn.
