A Question of Knowledge

By Richenda Power

Most books about knowledge assume philosophy as authority and are written from a single disciplinary perspective. A Question of Knowledge argues the case for the contribution of social scientific analyses from multiple perspectives in order to render this area of sociology more accessible to researchers, lecturers and students.With its open, questioning approach, the text encourages thinking through alternative ways of conceptualising forms of knowledge as fields of research. This makes it a challenging and exciting read for sociologists, psychologists (from 'cognitive', through 'educational' and 'developmental' to 'social'), anthropologists and cultural theorists.
