OECD Science, Technology and Industry Scoreboard 2005

From the Summary:

"The OECD Science, Technology and Industry (STI) Scoreboard 2005, the seventh in a series spanning over a decade, explores the growing interaction between knowledge and globalisation at the centre of the ongoing transformation of OECD economies. As innovation becomes a key determinant for long-run economic growth and social well-being, the Scoreboard provides a comprehensive picture of countries' performance in the areas of science, technology, globalisation and industry.

The STI Scoreboard brings together over 200 figures, many of which are new to this edition, to help examine emerging policy issues, including the international mobility of researchers and scientists, the increasing pace of innovation as measured by patenting, the growth of the information economy, the changing role of multinational enterprises, new patterns in trade competitiveness, and the emergence of key international players outside the OECD area, notably China."
