Description

How can we objectively measure scientific activities and determine the right proportion of economic activity to devote to research and development? This book by Routledge addresses these fundamental questions by providing a comprehensive account of how science and technology have been measured in Western countries. For more than eighty years, governments and researchers from industrial nations have attempted to track these activities. This work explores the historical movement of these efforts, examining the successes and shortcomings of various statistical systems. It offers a deep look into how public-sector and private-sector research can be directed to meet specific social goals. Whether you are studying economic history or the evolution of scientific measurement, this text provides the necessary historical context. It serves as a vital resource for understanding the long-term attempts to quantify technological progress and the methods used to guide research toward societal needs.
