Based on voluminous corporate records and extensive interviews with
key employees, Science and Corporate Strategy: Du Pont R and D,
1902-1980 provides a comprehensive, critical study of research and
development in a large US corporation. Du Pont was among a handful
of US corporations that established formal research and development
laboratories at the turn of the century to improve competitive
positions in their respective industries. Initially, Du Pont's
executives viewed R&D as an important though not central part
of the corporations strategy. However the gains made by the
company's laboratories soon demonstrated that R&D would be a
critical ingredient in the firm's success. The industrial research
and development laboratory became a major part of corporate
structure; science became a central part of corporate strategy.
