Thomas Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (at Amazon.co.uk) is excellent: how communities identify and understand a field through the use of paradigms, and how changes in these occur. A great mine of vocabulary for things I knew but was unable to articulate. And an interesting bridge between individual understanding, how people learn and communicate ideas, and group dynamics.
: Good synopsis and outline of the book.
