First published in 2000. Over the past two decades, the service
sector have increased dramatically and now occupy the largest share
of the economy of advanced industrial societies. Certain business
services are regularly cited as evidence for the emergence of a
"knowledge economy". In this pioneering book, leading researchers
in the fields of service industries and innovation studies
investigate the reasons for the growth of the service sectors and
this emergent knowledge economy. Drawing on material as diverse as
macroeconomic statistics and firm-level case studies, the
contributors demonstrate that services are often important
innovators in their own right, as well as contributing to
innovation and economic performance in their user industries. The
question of how far services are special cases, and what specific
processes and trajectories characterize their innovative activity
is treated systematically. Additionally, a variety of original
analyses and information resources are presented. This book should
be of value to the student of the modern industrial society, to
those seeking to forge policies appropriate to the new context of
economic development, and to researchers who are confronting the
challenges of the knowledge economy.
