The key message of this book is that heterogeneity should be seen as an intrinsic and indispensable element of knowledge systems. The authors address the concept of heterogeneity in a multi-disciplinary fashion, including perspectives from evolutionary economics and innovation system studies, and relate this approach to existing theories in a broad range of fields. This book postulates that one approach to such a re-conceptualization is what we call the 'Mode 3' system consisting of 'Innovation Networks' and 'Knowledge Clusters' for knowledge creation, diffusion and use. This is a multi-layered, multi-modal, multi-nodal and multi-lateral system, encompassing complementary and mutually reinforcing innovation networks and knowledge clusters consisting of human and intellectual capital, shaped by social capital and underpinned by financial capital. "Diversity in the Knowledge Economy and Society" will appeal to academics and researchers of innovation and science, knowledge management and economics.

Diversity in the Knowledge Economy and Society
The ethics of this book are somewhat disturbing. The author himself wonders throughout if it's wrong to do what he recommends. At one point he asks "What if everybody did this?" and his non-responsive answer is "Everybody doesn't". The honest answer is that if "everybody did this" there would be mass chaos. For example, he describes a jackass who has already gotten 15 speeding-tickets and gets pulled over for doing over 50 in a 20MPH zone but talks his way out of another ticket by using the skills he learned from the author. Well, what would be the result if every dangerous driver got away with their reckless behavior? More death and injury to innocent people. Not good.
Of course, if you are a sociopath and your only "goal in the real world" is "getting more" for yourself, then that is not a concern.
Anyway, this is just not a great book, with certain phrases/sentences repeated dozens, if not hundreds, of times. The parts that are useful and not evil can be found elsewhere with better presentation.
