Title: Origins, Attitudes, and Personalities of Research
Review: This book provides a fascinating overview of the emergence and evolution of research as a method for creating new products. The opening chapter describes the beneficial effects of research on companies and countries. It is very interesting to see that the debates over the roles of pure and applied research began almost as soon as research laboratories were formed.The second chapter describes how chemists' searching for new cloth dyes created a wide variety of new industries -- dyes, industrial chemicals, and pharmaceuticals.The rest of the chapters are devoted to the history and projects of major research labs like those at Bell, IBM, Seimens, HP, Microsoft, and Intel.Fascinating read for everyone involved in the business of research.
