Synopsis

This authoritative collection provides a wide-ranging survey of the most significant previously published papers on knowledge and learning within organizations. It explores beyond economics into the fields of cognitive science and sociology. The first volume investigates cognition in general and contains a number of classic articles which furnish the fundamentals of 'embodied cognition', the social basis of cognition and categorization. The second volume explores the application of these fundamentals to organizations and includes key papers on organizational, as opposed to individual, cognition and on the related themes of unity and diversity, stability and change.

Bart Nooteboom's authoritative introduction provides explanatory information and points the way for future work in this area.
