Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a series of lectures discussing the challenges facing science and technology, and thus the National Bureau of Standards, in the 1980s. The author, a noted physicist, argues that the United States has allowed itself to get inefficient, self-indulgent, short-sighted, and unsure of its future. They call for a renewed focus on innovation and productivity, particularly in manufacturing, and a commitment to technological advancement. The author argues that the challenges facing the United States in the 1980s are both technological and economic and that the country must address both in order to remain competitive in the global economy. The lectures also explore the relationship between government, science, and society and discuss the role of the National Bureau of Standards in supporting scientific research and technological innovation. The author concludes by emphasizing the importance of investing in science and technology and of fostering a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship.
