    Abstract
    After the world war 2, the need was realized for the development of a theory of the structure of the universe of subjects. Discusses the concept of 'social knowledge' and describes the criterion for distinguishing different kinds of social knowledge. Enumerates the attributes of a subject. Discusses the concept of mode of formation of subjects. Describes an empirical study carried out by the author to test the model proposed by S.R. Ranganathan. Concludes that this model is a powerful tool for knowledge representation in information retrieval

    Abstract
    Ranganathan was the first library and information scientist to recognize the role of developmental and structural studies of subjects in knowledge representation. 'Knowledge' and 'information' are used synonymously in the article. Different types of social knowledge can be distinguished and identified, applying the concept of 'subject' as formulated by Ranganathan. The universe of subjects is a growing universe. It is being cultivated continuously. This leads to change and growth, and consequently to new structures. This concept is illustrated by taking the case study of a specific subject namely biochemistry. The article also highlihts other structural and developmental attributes of the universe of subjects as propounded by Ranganathan and points out their relevance and role in information retrieval
