University Science and the Federal Government
Paperback
Publication Date: 30/08/1994
Is there a crisis in the relations between research universities and the federal government? Is US system, which has been the most successful in the world, breaking down? This book brings together essays by scientists, university leaders, scholars, and seasoned science watchers from government agencies and non-profit groups to address this issue. Neither advocacy nor polemic, it explores the social contexts for, and influences on, research in the university setting to encourage greater understanding of core issues by both politicians and scientists. The contributors offer concrete suggestions for building the foundation of a firmer contract that reflects current realities.
