This history of the government-funded synthetic rubber research
program (1942-19 6) offers a rare analysis of a cooperative
research program geared to the improvement of existing products and
the creation of new ones. The founders of the program believed the
best way to further research in the new field was through
collaboration among corporations, universities, and the federal
government. Morris concludes that, in fact, the effort was
ultimately a failure and that vigorous competition proves the best
way to stimulate innovation. Government programs, like the rubber
research program, are far better at improving existing products,
the author contends, than creating wholly new ones.
