The awesomeness of interdisciplinarity

In a recent issue of this newsletter, we included a link to a provocative new book that, well… close your eyes, founding faculty, if you’re reading this… more or less writes off interdisciplinarity as one of academe’s more over-hyped and under-useful experiments. Since then, a colleague on the 8th floor here has tipped us off to a much better new book. You can check out Robert Frodeman’s Sustainable Knowledge: A Theory of Interdisciplinarity (Macmillan, 2013)  at http://us.macmillan.com/sustainableknowledge/RobertFrodeman
