This volume examines the role of specialized knowledge in evaluating and designing information policy. The author begins with a description of the context in which American information policy is made with examples of existing domestic and international policies. He explores scientific and technical information, presents a case study of the SATCOM Report and concludes with suggestions for a new, broadly conceived research agenda within the framework of the method of investigation described in the book.
