Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Scientists in a Technology-Orientated Organization: Their Expectations, Incentives, and Career Patterns
When we speak of scientists, who are we talking about? In order to keep it clean, let's admit that there are some scientists who are self made. But the easiest way to define this subspecies of humanity is to speak of those who have taken a doctoral degree at a university in a field of science. There are about 80 thousand of them in this country. Of these, about 25 percent are primarily engaged in basic research.
