The proposed book represents an outline of the social theory of knowledge of the 21st century. With characteristic subtlety and liveliness, Steve Fuller explores the world in which universities and the academic environment are no longer accepted by default as the best place for intellectual life. Although the author protects the privileges of academicians, he is very serious about historical discrepancies between academics and intellectuals, specifically addressing various types of knowledge that are appreciated among them.
