520    The American Technological Challenge - Stagnation and 
       Decline in the 21st Century refutes the myth that we live 
       in the most innovative of times. Inventions themselves are
       only one of the factors that determine the technological 
       fate of a society. Sometimes, inventions are adopted, and 
       eagerly; sometimes not. The history of technological 
       progress, and the historical and societal factors that 
       impel or restrain the adoption of inventions, are explored
       in the book. New, life-changing inventions have become 
       rare and in spite of ample vocal support of innovation.
