The Economics of Science : Methodology and Epistemology as if Economics Really Mattered Paperback / softback
by James R Wible
Part of the Routledge Frontiers of Political Economy series
Paperback / softback
Description
Science is difficult and costly to do well. This study systematically creates an economics of science.
Many aspects of science are explored from an economic point of view.
The scientist is treated as an economically rational individual.
This book begins with economic models of misconduct in science and the legitimate, normal practices of science, moving on to market failure, the market place of ideas, self-correctiveness, and the organizational and institutional structures of science.
An exploration of broader methodological themes raised by an economics of science ends the work.
