‘”To measure is to know”. There is probably no other area than innovation where this saying seems appropriate. Or where similar sayings, such as “if you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it” or “what gets measured gets done” have a particular relevance to public policy. From improving the industrial competitiveness of a country or region to responding to old and new social and environmental challenges, in practically all countries of the world, innovation policy has emerged over the last decades as a crucial policy area. Fred Gault, the international expert in the field of innovation statistics and indicators, and his expert colleagues, Anthony Arundel and Erika Kraemer-Mbula, provide, in this second edition of the Handbook of Innovation Indicators and Measurement, an essential update and revision of the progress made in the way we look in a quantitative way at innovation. Much has indeed changed over the last ten years. This book provides an invaluable addition to our knowledge of the ubiquitous nature of innovation.’
