Knowledge and Innovation

A Comparative Study of the USA, the UK and Japan

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book presents case studies from the US, the UK and Japan. Packed full of vignettes from cases studies and subscribing to a socio-cultural approach rather than the often tacit assumption that knowledge and 'technology transfer' is a logistical problem, this excellent volume illuminates the often misunderstood process of knowledge transfer.
