"The Knowledge Book" is a unique interdisciplinary reference work
for students and researchers concerned with the nature of
knowledge. It is the first work of its kind to be organized on the
assumption that whatever else knowledge might be, it is
intrinsically social. The book consists of 42 alphabetically
arranged entries on key concepts at the intersection of philosophy
and sociology - what used to be called "sociology of knowledge" but
is now increasingly called "social epistemology". The entries
include concepts common to disciplines that in recent years have
devoted more of their attention to knowledge: cultural studies,
communication studies, information science, education, policy
studies and business studies. Special attention is given to
concepts from the emerging field of science and technology studies.
Each entry presents a short, self-contained essay providing an
overview of a concept and concludes with suggestions for further
reading. All the entries are fully cross-referenced, allowing
readers to both make connections and follow their own interests.
