Mapping Scientific Frontiers examines the history and the latest developments in the quest for knowledge visualization from an interdisciplinary perspective, ranging from theories of invisible colleges and competing paradigms, to practical applications of visualization techniques for capturing intellectual structures, and the rise and fall of scientific paradigms. Containing simple and easy to follow diagrams for modeling and visualization procedures, as well as detailed case studies and real world examples, this is a valuable reference source for researchers and practitioners, such as science policy analysts, funding agencies, consultancy firms, and higher education institutions. It presents 163 illustrations, 111 in colour, including maps, paintings, images, computer visualizations and animations.

Críticas
From the reviews: "a ]Mapping Scientific Frontiers: The Quest for Knowledge Visualization is an excellent book and is highly recommended. The book convincingly outlines general theories concerning cartography, visual communication, and science mapping - especially how metaphors can make a big picture simple and useful. The author likewise shows how the GSA framework is based not only on technical possibilities but indeed also on the visualization principles presented in the beginning chapters. Also, the author does a fine job of explaining why the mapping of scientific frontiers needs a combined effort from a diverse range of underlying disciplines, such as philosophy of science, sociology of science, scientometrics, domain analyses, information visualization, knowledge discovery, and data mining." Jesper W. Schneider, Royal School of Library and Information Science, Denmark, Aalborg Branch Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 2003 "This book investigates mapping scientific frontiers from the perspective of visual thinking and visual exploration (visual communication). a ] addresses an audience with different disciplinary backgrounds and tries to stimulate interdisciplinary research. a ] Mapping Scientific Frontiers: The Quest for Knowledge Visualization is an excellent book and is highly recommended.
