Product Information
This book investigates the relation between investment, R&D, and long-run growth. Its first part surveys the literature on R&D-based growth. This survey is supplemented by a number of classifying tables. In its second part, the book goes beyond the models of R&D-based growth by proposing a more comprehensive view: it sets forth growth models that represent economic growth as being driven by the complementary processes of physical capital investment and R&D activity, rather than by R&D activity alone. For all models presented, schematic representations and illustrative graphs are provided. The reader of this study acquires a fundamental understanding of the relation between investment, R&D, and long-run growth. Thus, this book is helpful not only to those teaching but also the economists researching in the field of growth theory.Product Identifiers
