For S&T policymakers
I do strongly recommend this book for S&T poliymakers and all people working on Strategic Policy on Science, Technology and Innovation. Although focused on the American experience, the authors present us with a nice-to-read guide for policy action and decision-making on scientific and technological issues.
I call for a special attention to the text of JaneE. Fountain about Social Capital - in today's society the main issue for innovation. Specially in countries like Brazil we do have to enhance actions and activities that improve and enable the creation of a great social capital in order to accelerate innovation processes in the country.
It is a book that you must have in your work desk !
