Invention, Innovation and Growth

F. V. Meyer, D. C. Corner and J. E. S. Parker

Chapter 8 in Problems of a Mature Economy, 1970, pp 76-120 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Firms continually adjust themselves to change. The preceding chapter has shown how they can do so through take-over and merger. The present chapter will examine what they will have to adjust themselves to. In the broadest sense, this will include adjustment to all environmental changes, be they technological, social or political. Here, however, attention will be confined to the major influences inducing technological change at the level of the individual firm.
