Abstract/Description

Report produced by the CGIAR Agricultural Science and Technology Indicators (ASTI) initiative on trends in public and private investment in agricultural research and development and the dramatic gap between research intensities in developing and developed countries. The title refers to the dynamic of scientific progress as a slow cumulative process rather than one led by revolutionary breakthroughs. Presented at the stakeholders' meeting of the 2001 CGIAR Annual General Meeting.
