The topic of technological innovation has been fascinating generations of scholars, managers, and policymakers ever since Schumpeter's influential Theory of Economic Development (1934) appeared in English. In it, he compellingly argued that the survival of firms as well as that of society is dependent upon their ability to perpetually find new uses for the existing resources and to recombine the latter in novel ways. The economic and social changes in the western world, particularly after the Industrial Revolution, are attributed to a considerable degree to technological innovations
