What is science? How is it performed? Is science only a method or is it also an institution? These are questions at the core of Managing Science, a handbook on how scientific research is conducted and its results disseminated. Knowledge creation occurs through scientific research in universities, industrial laboratories, and government agencies. Any knowledge management system needs to promote effective research processes to foster innovation, and, ultimately, to channel that innovation into economic competitiveness and wealth. However, science is a complicated topic. It includes...
What is science? How is it performed? Is science only a method or is it also an institution? These are questions at the core of Managing Science

At both a micro-information level and a macro-societal level, the concepts of "knowledge" and "wisdom" are complementary - in both decisions and in social structures and institutions. At the decision level, knowledge is concerned with how to make a proper choice of means, where "best" is measured as the efficiency toward achieving an end. Wisdom is concerned with how to make a proper choice of ends that attain "best" values.
At a societal level, knowledge is managed through science/technology and innovation. And while science/technology is society's way to create new means with high...

In 1988 when Higher Education in Partnership with Industry was published by Jossey-Bass (now part of Wiley), university-business partnerships were moving well beyond land grant campuses to varied college and university settings. This was among the first book-length works on the subject. Currently, academe is being redefined against its will by world-wide recession and efforts in the political sphere to balance budgets rather than invest in education and research. Disruptive technologies and a shift to an information management-based economy have emerged at a time of deep cuts in state funding...

This book aims to explore stability in an international financial system using disequilibrium theory. It examines historical cases of both instability and stability and reviews price-disequilibrium theory to construct a theoretical model for a stable international financial system.
In the modern knowledge economy in a global world, financial socio-technical systems still continue to be central to global commerce. Moreover, technological advances in computer and communications have changed both the knowledge economy and the financial system. While globalization and technology have made...
