Progress and Its Problems: Towards a Theory of Scientific Growth Larry Laudan
Publisher: University of California Press

An explicit model of knowledge production that converts human, financial, and knowledge capital into resources (e.g., open problems, skills), which are then transformed into solutions and products. Although coarse-grain system dynamics models were used in the past to predict the growth and development of scientific research, among the limitations of their use include (1) lack of heterogeneity in terms of individuals' decisions, actions, career choices, as well as learning and . Researchers presently use the grant-peer review system to get funding and this system has been criticized for diluting the effort towards pure, theoretical research by encouraging researchers to investigate applied science ventures of questionable scientific merit. Results: migration towards USA. Berkeley: University of California Press. From intentions to action: A theory of planned behavior. This observational study and literature review aggregate what is known regarding the quantity and quality of terrestrial ecosystems - particularly old-growth and primary forests - necessary to sustain the biosphere. This version became known as Heuristic-DENDRAL. To determine However the explosive growth of scientific progress in the 19th Century quickly consumed more money than scientists could supply privately, and so new sources of funding became necessary. Berkeley: University of California Press; 1977. Progress and problems: Towards a theory of scientific growth. Rehabilitation psychology and its immediate future: A problem of utilization of psychological knowledge. It used heuristic search to determine solutions for the chemical structures responsible for the spectra, and was the first application of AI to a problem of scientific reasoning. Their refusal to engage on issues of economic injustice and equity blocks progress towards cooperative solutions to environmental and social ills, and lessens the prospects of achieving mid-to-long term global ecological sustainability.

In addition to the actual growth of science and scientific activity, there has been much effort to show that such progress benefits the economy through a line of investigation tying basic research to patents production.
