Contributors from political science, economics, and various specific natural and social sciences, analyze the formation of public science policy with a theoretical and methodological rigor that is common to most areas of policy but not, they say, of science policy. Covering in turn theory, measurement and data issues, and practical matters, they discuss such topics as sociology and the science of science policy, a situated cognition view of innovation with implications for innovative policy, legacy and new databases for linking innovation to impact, a vision of data and analytics for the science of science policy, the problems of political design in federal innovation organization, and institutional ecology and the social outcomes of scientific research.
