A study of the value and meaning of technological advance. The author considers how past physical and social conditions have influenced the development and reception of new ideas, and shows how these trends can guide future industrial strategies as more countries compete for technical ingenuity.

In this provocative study of the value and meaning of technological advance, Joel Mokyr considers how past physical and social conditions have influenced the development and reception of new ideas, and shows how these trends can guide future industrial strategies at a time when more countries than ever before are competing for the rewards of technical ingenuity.
