Studies on Science and the Innovation Process: Selected Works by Nathan Rosenberg
ISBN: 9789814273589 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 428 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Science and technology have become increasingly intertwined in the twentieth century. However, little attention has been paid to the forces that have brought about this phenomena. Indeed, many writers have taken it for granted that causality always runs from science to technology. In this ground-breaking book, Rosenberg's research suggests that history and empirical evidence lead to a reality that is far more complex and interesting. Here, Rosenberg's papers cover a wide range of topics, especially those connected with the innovative process, including electric power, electronics, medicine,...

Exploring the Black Box: Technology, Economics, and History
ISBN: 9780521452700 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book presents a unique account of how technological change is generated and the processes by which improved technologies are introduced into economic activity. The central theme of the book is the idea that technological changes are often "path dependent": their form and direction tend to be influenced strongly by the particular sequence of earlier events out of which a new technology has emerged. Individual chapters explore the particular features of new technologies in different historical and sectoral contexts.

Inside the Black Box: Technology and Economics
ISBN: 9780521273671 / Angielski / Miękka / 1983 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Economists have long treated technological phenomena as events transpiring inside a black box and, on the whole, have adhered rather strictly to a self-imposed ordinance not to inquire too seriously into what transpires inside that box. The purpose of Professor Rosenberg's work is to break open and examine the contents of the black box. In so doing, a number of important economic problems be powerfully illuminated. The author clearly shows how specific features of individual technologies have shaped a number of variables of great concern to economists: the rate of productivity improvement,...

Schumpeter and the Endogeneity of Technology: Some American Perspectives
ISBN: 9780415226523 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Joseph Schumpeter can be regarded as one of the most creative and influential economists of the 20th century. This influence has increased significantly since his death in 1950. Schumpeter addressed the central question of how some societies have managed to achieve substantial improvements in material wellbeing. His answer to wellbeing, with its emphasis on conditions favouring innovation, has become more persuasive charting world history from 1945. Nathan Rosenberg argues that today Schumpeter speaks to the economics profession in an authoritative way for another reason.

International Technology Transfer: Concepts, Measures, and Comparisons
ISBN: 9780275902216 / Angielski / Twarda / 1985 / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For many years it was assumed that technology transfer would prove an unqualified answer for the problems of the developing nations, vastly simplifying and accelerating their rate of economic development. The papers in this volume question these assumptions demonstrating how technology transfer can be very costly and that success is contingent upon a variety of factors including, the direction of indigienous technology and the political setting of the recipient country.

Economic Planning in the British Building Industry, 1945-1949
ISBN: 9781512806304 / Angielski / Twarda / 1960 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This volume undertakes the examination and appraisal of the economic controls employed by the British Labor Government in attempting to regulate the output of the building industry in the years immediately following the Second World War. An unfortunate consequence of earlier preoccupation with purely income-generating aspects of investment activity was that insufficient consideration was given to the allocation of investment resources. It was precisely this latter problem, however, which became a matter of major concern to the Labor Government. Its building program in the postwar...

Technology and the Pursuit of Economic Growth
ISBN: 9780521389365 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Technology'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...

How the West Grew Rich: The Economic Transformation of the Industrial World
ISBN: 9780465031092 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. How did the West--Europe, Canada, and the United States--escape from immemorial poverty into sustained economic growth and material well-being when other societies remained trapped in an endless cycle of birth, hunger, hardship, and death? In this elegant synthesis of economic history, two scholars argue that it is the political pluralism and the flexibility of the West's institutions--not corporate organization and mass production technology--that explain its unparalleled wealth.

ISBN: 9780804720823 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Most discussions of US economic competitiveness focus on the creation of new technologies, this book presents the abundant evidence that indicates that the key factor underpinning US competitiveness is not the development of technology itself, but the factors that influence the commercialization of technology.
