Title: LEARNING AND INNOVATION IN ORGANIZATIONS AND ECONOMIES.
Description: Oxford / New York, Oxford University Press, 2005. reprint 343 pp. Pb. This book develops a general logic, or heuristic of discovery, to explain the emergence of novelty in individual thought, organizations, industries, and economies. The central theme of the book is the relation between stability and change. In business literature this theme appears in the relation between exploitation and exploration. In evolutionary economics it appears in the relation between selection and adaptation. The general heuristic shows how exploitation can provide the basis for exploration. The analysis is illustrated with many phenomena and empirical results from the different literatures. Corners show some wear. Spine slightly bended. Name french title page.
