Opis

Much is said about the information age, the information economy, the information society, and particularly about information technology, but little about information itself. Here, Stuart Macdonald finds information central to a variety of business/economics disciplines, from patents to high technology, from corporate strategy to industrial espionage. In doing so, he reveals the rather tricky role that information plays in current processes of innovation and change.

Recenzje

Information for Innovation, by MacDonald is an interesting book, providing a fresh new perspective on a topic of particular interest to economies possessing ever more increasing knowledge intensive production processes. It is illustrated by a very broad and diverse range of examples, that demonstrate the general applicability of the chosen approach. Marcus Hagermeister, Information Economics and Policy, 2000
