Abstract
In this volume, a link between Science, technology, and innovation in the history of economic thought is established. There is barely any study linking these three important issues within the history of economic thought. Literature has usually studied them in an unconnected way. However, all of them consist of a societal knowledge with a need for vocation, inventiveness, and a desire for change. All of them are systems of knowledge about the physical world—matter and business type—which try to explain how matter and life works and how we may change it.
