Book excerpt: Historians have long been interested in knowledge - its nature and origin, and the circumstances under which it was created - but it has only been in recent decades that the history of knowledge has emerged as an academic field in its own right. In Circulation of Knowledge, a group of Nordic researchers address the burning issue of the day: the circulation of knowledge in social or scientific circles, and what happens to it when it is in motion.
