Cautious voyagers -- bk. 2. Embrace or resist?Many warn that the next stage of globalization--the offshoring of research and development to China and India--threatens the foundations of Western prosperity. But in The Venturesome Economy, acclaimed business and economics scholar Amar Bhidé shows how wrong the doomsayers are. Using extensive field studies on venture-capital-backed businesses to examine how technology really advances in modern economies, Bhidé explains why know-how developed abroad enhances--not diminishes--prosperity at home, and why trying to maintain the U.S. lead by subsidizing more research or training more scientists will do more harm than good. When breakthrough ideas have no borders, a nation's capacity to exploit cutting-edge research regardless of where it originates is crucial: "venturesome consumption"--the willingness and ability of businesses and consumers to effectively use products and technologies derived from scientific research--is far more important than having a share of such research. In fact, a venturesome economy benefits from an increase in research produced abroad: the success of Apple's iPod, for instance, owes much to technologies developed in Asia and Europe. Many players--entrepreneurs, managers, financiers, salespersons, consumers, and not just a few brilliant scientists and engineers--have kept the United States at the forefront of the innovation game. As long as their venturesome spirit remains alive and well, advances abroad need not be feared. Read The Venturesome Economy and learn why--and see how we can keep it that way.Technology transferUnited StatesTechnology transferDeveloping countriesResearch and development partnershipResearch and development projectsInternational cooperationElectronic books.Technology transferTechnology transferResearch and development partnership.Research and development projectsInternational cooperation.338/.064Bhide Amar1955-973177MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910455219903321The venturesome economy2481029UNINA01917oam 2200433zu 450 991016164330332120210807002142.00-8031-8665-7(CKB)3170000000045453(SSID)ssj0001490165(PQKBManifestationID)11920448(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001490165(PQKBWorkID)11475870(PQKB)10863207(NjHacI)993170000000045453(EXLCZ)99317000000004545320160829d1975 uy engur|||||||||||txtccrLow-Temperature Pumpability Characteristics of Engine Oils in Full-Scale Engines[Place of publication not identified]American Society for Testing & Materials19751 online resource (99 pages) illustrationsASTM data series publication ;57Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph0-8031-0392-1 Low-temperature engine oil pumpability data have been obtained on thirteen ASTM Pumpability Reference Oils in seven full-scale test engines.
