520 This book argues that the standard categories of research
as "basic" or "applied" have become a hindrance to the
actual practice of research. The historical understanding
of the basic vs. applied dichotomy is contrasted with the
perspectives and lived experiences of researchers in
various institutions. Using Nobel Prize-winning work as
examples, the book explores the daily micro-practices of
research and shows how the distinction of "basic" and
"applied" quickly loses salience when one pays attention
to the actual practice of research. The book offers an
alternative view of the research process that sees the
processes of discovery and invention as two sides of the
same coin. By considering research as an integrative
process that can lead to inventions and/or discoveries,
this book provides a new model for understanding the
practice of research.--|cProvided by publisher.
