Debating Innovation (eBook, PDF)

Perspectives and Paradoxes of an Idealized Concept

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Despite its complexity, innovation is often depicted within academic literature as a phenomenon that is innately good and always necessary. This thought-provoking volume presents a more nuanced view – through a number of paired chapters for and against, as well as more general critiques of innovation and several suggested new lines of inquiry, the book will be of interest to all with a broader interest in innovation.
