The
End of Knowing:
A New Developmental Way of
Learning
By Fred Newman and Lois Holzman
For centuries, knowledge has been thought to be key to human
progress of all kinds and has dominated Western culture. But
what if knowing has now become an impediment to further human
development? The End of Knowing addresses the practical question
of how to reconstruct our world when modernist ideas have failed
to solve many social problems. Newman and Holzman show how
we can give up knowing in favor of "performed activity" and
present the many positive implications this has for social
and educational policy. (Routledge, 1997)
