内容简介：
Joseph Schumpeter was, beyond doubt, one of the most creative and influential economists of the twentieth century. That influence has increased significantly since his death in 1950. Schumpeter directly addressed the central question of how some societies have managed to achieve substantial improvements in material wellbeing. His answer to this question, with its emphasis on conditions favoring innovation, has become even more persuasive given the course of world history
post-1945.
作者简介：
Nathan Rosenberg argues that today Schumpeter speaks to economists in an even more authoritative way for yet another reason. This book explores Schumpeter’s views as an economist who was,long ago, committed to the notion of the endogeneity of technology. His mature writings offer illuminating historical analyses of how and why some social systems have managed to generate innovation. This element of his vision deserves far more attention than it has so far received, and this book redresses the balance. Moreover, bringing us up-to-date, Nathan Rosenberg explores the ways in which the concept of endogeneity illuminates recent American economic history. Nathan Rosenberg is Professor of Economics at Stanford University.His publications include How the West Grew Rich (with L.E. Birdzell,Jr.), Inside the Black Box, Exploring the Black Box, and, most recently,Paths of Innovation (with David Mowery). He is the recipient of honorary degrees from the universities of Lund and Bologna, and he was awarded the Leonardo da Vinci Prize for his contributions to the history of technology. He is past chairman of the Stanford Economics Department, a fellow of the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research,and a member of the board of directors and the executive board of the National Bureau of Economic Research.
