Authors: Lemonick, Michael D., Beech, Hannah, Bower, Amanda, Cooper, Matthew, Roston, Eric, Walsh, Bryan
Source: TIME Magazine. 2/13/2006, Vol. 167 Issue 7, p22-33. 10p. 10 Color Photographs, 2 Black and White Photographs, 2 Charts, 4 Graphs.
Subjects: Technological innovations, Research & development, International competition, United States politics & government, 2001-2009, Science education, Mathematics education, Investments, Scientific knowledge
Abstract: The article suggests that years of declining investment and overseas competition are threatening to end America's supremacy in scientific innovation. After a half-century of unchallenged superiority in science and technology, the U.S. is losing ground to nations like China, South Korea and India. Experts have been warning for decades that U.S. science was heading for trouble. The government has steadily cut back on investing in research and development, and corporations have done the same. The quality of elementary and high school math and science education has plummeted. INSETS: SLOWING DOWN WHILE OTHERS SPEED UP;EUREKA!…BUT WHAT IS IT?.
