This book provides an overview of the importance of science,
technology, and innovation in the history of economic thought. It
charts how science has responded to societal needs and global
challenges to highlight the way in which knowledge and technology
have been used to benefit society. Particular attention is given to
modern concerns, such as climate change, technological
unemployment, and social unrest, which are contextualised within
the work of the Scottish Enlightenment, Marx, Weber, and
Schumpeter. Broader debates, including the relationship between
invention and economic development, the alienation of labour, and
institutional change, are also considered. This book aims to shed
new light on our understanding of science, technology, and
innovation by placing them within ideas from the history of
economic thought. It will be relevant to students and researchers
interested in the history of economic thought and the economics of
innovation and technology.
