First sentence: In the spring of 1960 a conference was held at the University of Minnesota under the auspices of the Universities-NBER Committee for Economic Research, resulting in the publication of The Rate and Direction of Inventive Activity (Nelson 1962), a volume that still serves as a major statement and source book of economic ideas in this field.
