Beschreibung
In this provocative and broad-ranging work, the authors argue that the ways in which knowledge - scientific, social and cultural - is produced are undergoing fundamental changes at the end of the twentieth century. They claim that these changes mark a distinct shift into a new mode of knowledge production which is replacing or reforming established institutions, disciplines, practices and policies.

Identifying features of the new mode of knowledge production - reflexivity, transdisciplinarity, heterogeneity - the authors show how these features connect with the changing role of knowledge in social relations. While the knowledge produced by research and development in science and technology is accorded central concern, the authors also outline the changing dimensions of social scientific and humanities knowledge and the relations between the production of knowledge and its dissemination through education.

Über den Autor
Michael Edward Gibbons, was born in Salem, MA and grew up in Peabody, MA. He attended the University of Massachusetts in Boston before going to work for the New England Telephone Company. His career as Lead Field Service Engineer in the semiconductor industry began in Gloucester, MA. It led to extensive travel throughout the United States, Germany and South Africa.

Michael continued his career in the semiconductor industry in New York. While living in Garrison, NY, he was appointed Chairman of the Philipstown Greenway, County Representative of the NY State Greenway and a member of the Philipstown Planning Board. He was elected President of the Garrison Fish & Game Club and became a member of the Board of Directors for the Cold Spring, NY Chamber of Commerce.

Michael and his wife, author Marta Elva, left New York to retire in Matlacha on Florida's west coast. Once in Florida, Michael joined the Greater Pine Island Elks and worked with the Roy Hobbs World Series organization. He was elected President of the Matlacha-Civic Association and served one year before his illness forced him to resign. Once his health improved he served on the board of Directors for the Greater Pine Island Chamber of Commerce.

Michael enjoyed serving his community and meeting new people. His favorite pastimes were golfing, fishing and dancing with Marta whenever possible. Toward the end of his life, Michael discovered a hidden skill for writing; documenting life experiences with a poetic flair when chemo kept him up all night.

Michael is survived by his wife Marta who helped raise two children, Jesse Daniel Gibbons and Jennifer Michael Gibbons of Gloucester, MA; and one grandson, Ethan Kevin Gibbons.
