Technical innovation has moved to center stage in contemporary debates on economic theory and policy, and Chris Freeman and Luc Soete have played a prominent part in these debates. For this new edition of The Economics of Industrial Innovation, they have rewritten all the existing chapters and added ten new ones that address recent advances in theory and in policymaking.

They take advantage of their experience on projects for the OECD, the European Union, and industry in other new chapters on 'The Information Society' and on environmental issues, as well as in the
