This book examines a wide variety of topics related to innovation, such as technology standards, team processes affecting innovation, and the interface between academia and industry. Its strength lies in the fact that innovation is discussed from both hard and ‘soft’ (that is, the ‘people’ side of innovation) perspectives.
