Metaphors and the Dynamics of Knowledge (Routledge Studies in Social and Political Thought)
Editorial Reviews
Review
"This is a substantial, interesting, and wel-written analysis of the role of metaphors within various disciplines. The authors have produced a worthy analysis of what they call "knowledge dynamics." ...Many people will find parts of this book of interest, and researchers in the sociology/philosophy of sciences and those interested in applications of chaos/complexity and biological models of social analysis will be especially assisted by the detailed materials."
–Contemporary Sociology
Book Description
This book opens up a new route to the study of knowledge dynamics and the sociology of knowledge. The focus is on the role of metaphors as powerful catalysts and the book dissects their role in the construction of theories of knowledge and will therefore be of vital interest to social and cognitive scientists alike.
