Science can be difficult and costly to conduct. Many aspects are explored from an economic viewpoint and the scientist is often treated as an economically rational individual. This study seeks to create an economics of science. It begins with economic models of misconduct in science and the legitimate practices of science. It moves on to market failure, the market place of ideas, self-correctiveness and the organizational and institutional structures of science and ends with and exploration of broader methodological themes raised by an economics of science.
