A chapter in Management Intelligence, 2008, pp 164-165 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract A witty academic remarked once that research was a bit like praying. It is a private, very respectable, but essentially pointless activity. Research can be used as a verb or noun. You research an issue to understand it, to find out what others have thought about it.
