In this article, I have a critical approach to the problem of "translation" in the field of knowledge and information science and offer some cases from a book, namely "Personal Knowledge Management". This article is a review of the mentioned book but it is a good sample for describing and criticizing the condition of translation in the human sciences. In this article, the conceptual analysis method was used and after a concise review of the importance of criticism and a brief description of the methodology, I started a formal critique on the book. Then, I reviewed the sections of the book and its contents. After that, I began with two levels of criticism: critics on the content and critics on the quality of the translation. The most important criticism of the content is the projection of English structure on the Persian grammar. Moreover, the most important criticism of the content is the absence of practical advice, tips, and tricks for better personal knowledge management. Another important criticism is the absence of ethical considerations in the practice of personal knowledge management and the moral obligation of individuals, foundations, associations, and organizations about the subject matter.

Many researchers, professionals, and managers believe that knowledge is one of the key assets of organizations and businesses in the current era. In this regard, the term knowledge strategy has been considered in order to clarify the knowledge assets for the organization, which ultimately improves the efficiency and effectiveness of the organization by implementing knowledge management and formulating a knowledge management strategy. The book Knowledge Strategy and Knowledge Management seeks to explain two main concepts, namely “Knowledge Strategy” and “Knowledge Management Strategy” in four chapters. This book is one of the first works in the Persian language to focus on the concept of knowledge strategy. Although the book addresses an important issue that is one of the key needs business managers, the distinction between strategic management, knowledge strategy, strategic knowledge management, etc. is not clearly stated. The purpose of this article is to review the book Knowledge Strategy and Knowledge Management from different aspects.
