Abstract

The publication of Bernd Frohmann’s Deflating Information: From Science Studies to Documentation, a significant theoretical contribution to Library and Information Science (LIS) generally and documentation studies specifically, coincided with the commencement of my doctoral studies in the fall of 2004. I was introduced to this book in the early weeks of that first semester when Professor Frohmann delivered an illuminating guest lecture on its theoretical implications for the LIS discipline. The presentation sparked, what was to become, my scholarly passion for documentation studies. [excerpt]
