3 October 2017
"Ideas, and in particular the exponential growth they entail, are getting harder and harder to find," according to a recent study by the National Bureau of Economic Research in the United States. The authors are Michael Webb, Charles I. Jones and Nicholas Bloom of the Stanford University School of Economics and John Van Reenen of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In a Stanford blog post, Bloom points out that there have been so many revolutionary inventions in post-World War II that it has become difficult for scientists to keep up.
