For those of us interested in the need to measure better-which means understanding better-the increasingly intangible economy, this is a really interesting book. It covers the waterfront from conceptual frameworks down to nitty gritty measurement questions. * Diane Coyle, Enlightened Economist * Despite their wide range, the essays in this book add up to a fascinating glimpse of an emerging new understanding of the twenty-first century economy, like a distant building taking shape as you approach it on a foggy day. They also underline the importance of research on statistics describing the economy. . . . A valuable contribution to the task of understanding the world innovation is creating. * Business Economics *
