Experimental Capitalism examines six key industries-automobiles, pneumatic tires , television receivers, semiconductors , lasers and penicillin-and tracks the highs and lows of American high-tech capitalism and the resulting innovation landscape. Employing "nanoeconomics"-a deep dive into the formation and functioning of companies -Steven Kleeper determines how specific companies emerged to become the undisputed leaders that altered the course of their industry's evolution. Kleeper concludes his study with a discussion of the impact of government and the potential for policy to enhance a nation's high-tech industrial base.
