This book examines why the movement of knowledge can be so fragile, and what happens when different ways of knowing collide. Drawing on scholarship from the field of science and technology studies, the book explores the ways in which standards, alignment work, relationships and power shape how knowledge is taken up, transformed or rejected.

By focusing on the often invisible labour that supports knowledge transfer, the book offers a novel framework for understanding how meaning is negotiated across contexts, and why stable knowledge remains such a persistent challenge in contemporary societies.
