| Synopsis: |
Each year, the federal government of the United States spends billions of taxpayers' dollars on research and development. Until now, surprising little specific information was available on exactly where, and how, this money is being spent. Discovery and Innovation reports, for the first time in one document: A full and accurate accounting of all Federal R&D expenditures in each of the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. The impact of Federal R&D investments on local economies. A state-by-state, unit-by-unit reporting of detailed budget information for each of the individual laboratories, research centers, universities, and companies that perform R&D. Descriptions of the substantive nature of the research, rather than simple categarization by broad scientific discipline. |
