Product Descriptiontechnology'S Contribution To Economic Growth And Competitiveness Has Been The Subject Of Vigorous Debate In Recent Years. This Book Demonstrates The Importance Of A Historical Perspective In Understanding The Role Of Technological Innovation In The Economy. The Authors Examine Key Episodes And Institutions In The Development Of The U.S. Research System And In The Development Of The Research Systems Of Other Industrial Economies. They Argue That The Large Potential Contributions Of Economics To The Understanding Of Technology And Economic Growth Have Been Constrained By The Narrow Theoretical Framework Employed Within Neoclassical Economies. A Richer Framework, They Believe, Will Support A More Fruitful Dialogue Among Economists, Policymakers, And Managers On The Organization Of Public And Private Institutions For Innovation.

This Book Collects And Builds From Their Recent Work And The Work Of Others. It Will Be Of Major Interest To Scholars, Policymakers, And All Others Intrigued By The Question Of How Technical Advance Comes About, And How The System Currently Is Changing.'
