Epistemic Cultures How the Sciences Make Knowledge Karin Knorr Cetina Books Reviews

• The intricate interest in bits and pieces of concepts being put together for experiments that try to scratch the surface of what is going on when we don't understand basic interactions we don't really see can produce a specialty in theory making guesses and technical equipment built to catch what we never knew in the act of becoming thinkable. Funded ideas apply to more than who is going to pay for the continuity that is more squishy when everybody stops trying to find answers.
• Knorr-Cetina's study of how scientific knowledge is produced has been around for more than a decade but still remains one of the best sources for what the concept of "Epistemic Cultures" means. It has developed into broader concepts that may be applied to organizations or larger systems, the number of citations it has gotten is just a small indication of its importance. Recommended to those interested in studying knowledge creation/use/transfer in contemporary settings.
