Barry Bozeman is a professor at Arizona State University where he is Director, Center for Organization Research and Design, and a Professor of Technology Policy and Public Management. He specializes in organization theory and science and technology policy. In 1977, Bozeman joined at Syracuse University's Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs and was the founding director of the Center for Technology and Information Policy. At Georgia Tech he became the first social scientist appointed as a Regent's Professor. Bozeman moved to Arizona State University where he is Arizona Centennial Professor of Technology Policy and Public Management and Director of the Center for Organization Research and Design. "Limited by Design" is the first comprehensive study of the roles played by the more than 16, 000 research and development laboratories in the U.S. national innovation system. The authors offer policy makers and scientists a blueprint for making more informed decisions about how to best utilize and develop the capabilities of these facilities. These laboratories have come to serve as the infrastructure upon which a range of industries have relied and have had a tremendous impact on U.S. economic history. The authors illustrate the histories, missions, structure, and behavior of individual laboratories, and explore the policy contexts in which they are embedded. The book draws upon interviews and surveys collected from thousands of scientists, administrators, and policy makers, and features boxed "lab windows" that provide detailed information on the laboratories active in the U.S. national innovation system.

Very good in Very good jacket. xxvi, [2], 321, [3] pages. Figures. Tables. Illustrations. Lab Windows. Appendix I and II. References. Index. DJ has slight wear and soiling. Michael Maurice Crow (born October 11, 1955) is an American academic administrator. He was the 16th president of Arizona State University. During his tenure at ASU, he is credited with creating the New American University model. He was previously Executive Vice Provost of Columbia University, where he was also Professor of Science and Technology Policy in the School of International and Public Affairs. He is also chairman of the board for In-Q-Tel, the Central Intelligence Agency's venture capital firm. After earning his doctorate, Crow worked as an advisor to the Office of Technology Assessment in the United States Congress and was a Research Fellow on the Technology and Information Policy Program at the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs. Barry Bozeman is a professor emeritus at Arizona State University where he was founding Director, Center for Organization Research and Design, Regents' Professor and Arizona Centennial Professor of Technology Policy and Public Management. He specializes in two disparate fields, organization theory and science and technology policy. In 1974, as part of the Intergovernmental Personnel Act, took a position as an analyst in the National Science Foundation's Division of Information Science and Technology. In 2013, Bozeman moved to Arizona State University where he became Arizona Centennial Professor of Technology Policy and Public Management. Limited by Design is the first comprehensive study of the varying roles played by the more than 16, 000 research and development laboratories in the U.S. national innovation system. Michael Crow and Barry Bozeman offer policy makers and scientists a blueprint for making more informed decisions about how to best utilize and develop the capabilities of these facilities. Some labs, such as Bell Labs, Westinghouse, and Eastman Kodak, have been global players since the turn of the century. Others, such as Los Alamos National Laboratory, have been mainstays of the military/energy industrial complex since they evolved in the 1940s. These and other institutions have come to serve as the infrastructure upon which a range of industries have relied and have had a tremendous impact on U.S. social and economic history. Michael Crow and Barry Bozeman illustrate the histories, missions, structure, and behavior of individual laboratories, and explore the policy contexts in which they are embedded. In studying this large and varied collection of labs, Crow, Bozeman, and their colleagues develop a new framework for understanding the structure and behavior of laboratories that also provides a basis for rationalizing federal science and technology policy to create more effective laboratories. The book draws upon interviews and surveys collected from thousands of scientists, administrators, and policy makers, and features boxed "lab windows" throughout that provide detailed information on the variety of laboratories active in the U.S. national innovation system. Limited by Design addresses a range of questions in order to enable policy makers, university administrators, and scientists to plan effectively for the future of research and development.
