Product Description

What is Information Science? This comprehensive book answers this key question and explains how information science differs from data science and library science. Using a range of practical examples, the book explores how information science cuts across disciplines and integrates a range of information into a coherent whole. Starting with a historical overview of information science, subsequent chapters explore:communication toolsinformation integrity and behaviourartificial intelligence and data scienceinformation retrieval, curation and non-verbal informationinformation in technology, education and politics. A core text for those teaching library and information science as well as practising librarians or those working in information and communication fields, Information Science is an authoritative and subject-defining publication.
