The current discourse surrounding experts often takes a polarized stance, fueled by misguided assumptions. Expertise is either revered or disparaged, with no middle ground. In an effort to bridge this gap, Making Sense of Expertise offers a conceptual framework for the study of expertise, aimed at fostering a more nuanced understanding of its role in contemporary society.
The book recognizes the importance of clarifying the various meanings and interpretations of experts and expertise, as they are often implied without being explicitly stated. To address this, Grundmann's approach to expertise draws upon a synthesis of approaches found across various fields of knowledge. By amalgamating these diverse perspectives, the book aims to provide a comprehensive and rigorous framework for the study of expertise.
Through a series of in-depth case studies drawn from contemporary issues such as the climate crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic, the authors provide empirical evidence to support their comprehensive approach. This thought-provoking book appeals to students, instructors, and researchers across a wide range of fields in the humanities, social sciences, and science and technology studies. By delving into the complexities of expertise, Making Sense of Expertise offers valuable insights into the role of experts in shaping our understanding of the world and addressing pressing societal challenges.
