What is Organisation and Scientific Discovery (Manchester Physics) about?

<p><P>The book takes the view that discovery is the outcome of successful science, and that organisations play a central role in facilitating or inhibiting discovery. John Hurley argues against the theory that creativity only leads to scientific discovery and suggests a model of the processes leading to discovery including both individual and organisational processes.</p> <h3>Booknews</h3> <p>Considerable attention is paid to scientific creativity and very little to the organizational factors which support discovery. Hurley (organizational psychology, Dublin city U.) draws on interviews with 16 Nobel laureates to explore how the chances of discovery can be increased by the implementation of a research organization model that facilitates the effective selection of scientists, their development and training, and scientific leadership. Includes appendices of questionnaires and interview questions used in the study. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.</p>
