• Excerpt from A Research Retrospective of Innovation Inception and Success: The Technology-Push Demand-Pull QuestionUnfortunately, as is typical in the study of human organizations or social processes, there are serious obstacles to obtaining generalizable results. Not only are the underlying processes complex and inter-related. But they are in a sense unobservable. there is a chicken and egg quality to the tpdp issue. Confounding the problem is the fact that research goals of related studies are slightly different, so that even if a well catalogued set of innovation types were developed, cumulation of results would still be difficult due to the fragmentation of studies and to the inherent uniqueness in scientific projects. Allen [1984] suggests in science and technology, each piece of work is, by definition, unique. If the problem has been solved before, it is no longer research. And so, unfortunately for policy makers and managers there continues to be a lack of hard evidence at several different level of analysis.This situation summarizes, to a large extent, the state of related research at this point. different studies concentrate on different facets of the question.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
