Designed to be accessible yet rigorous, they offer concise and lucid surveys of the substantive and policy issues associated with discrete subject areas.This illuminating book explores how societies reshape themselves through innovation, reviewing methods for foreseeing, guiding and evaluating these changes. It demonstrates how a community can use shared goals and priorities to promote and pursue outcome-oriented public values innovation.John Nelson and Barry Bozeman examine the impacts of innovation on public values such as economic prosperity and equity, national security, public health and safety, and environmental wellbeing.
