Knowledge

Knowledge is understanding something or being able to do something. The things we know are facts, truths or information. Obtaining knowledge is called learning. This article looks at the philosophical study of knowledge, epistemology; it then looks at how knowledge is manipulated in organizations, and at the social character of knowledge.
