One Cheer for Two Cultures? The 1993 White Paper on Science and Technology.

Glover, Ian A.; Currie, Wendy L.

Higher Education Review, v27 n1 p58-68 Fall 1994

Discusses the 1993 British government White Paper "Realising Our Potential," which advocated closer cooperation by government, higher education, and the private sector in science and technology. It supports the White Paper's emphasis on increased funding for research and development (R&D) but criticizes its inattention to the low level of R&D investment in British industry. (MDM)
