    Can anyone help answer this question? Thanks in advance! (If the is a sustainability connection, that would be perfect.)

    "Long winded question for you - you may not have an opinion/view, but somehow I think you might: 

    Is there a good tome on innovation and endogenous/exogenous growth theory?  The topic I'm interested in is the role innovation plays in the maturation of economies from factor- to efficiency- and ultimately to service/innovation-led entities.  I think this stuff goes back at least to Sokol, but I want to read something current and authoritative on themes like the non-zero-sum nature of economic activity, and the % of GDP/P over time attributable to innovation or non-land/labor/capital inputs.  I read Matt Ridley's book, The Rational Optimist, and my current interest is an extension of his thesis and a desire to get better informed and more critical about the idea that innovation, specialization, and trade has been and can continue to be the engine of real, sustainable prosperity.

    Any ideas?  Hope you're doing well,

    KJK"
