Knowledge Management Handbook
Rating: ******** (Very good)
A very excellent collection of articles, that should be used more in the universities.
It manages to answer a number of questions about KM and explain a number of issues as well. A must read.
But please be aware that this is absolutely not a primer or the first book you put into the hands of people, some experience and learning has best been seen to before you tackle this book.
