| Abstract: | OVERVIEW. Advances in science and engineering have brought the world to a place where distance no longer matters. In such a world it is necessary to ask how well Americans are being equipped to compete for business and jobs. It was to answer this question that the U.S. National Academies issued its 2005 "Gathering Storm" study report. The report warned that America's competitive edge would have to be its ability to innovate through cutting-edge research, create new products and services, and undertake extraordinary entrepreneurship. Among other recommendations, it called for producing 10,000 fully qualified math and science teachers every year and doubling the investment in basic research. Although the Obama administration has initiated a major increase in funding for research and research facilities, the challenge will be to sustain this increase for 15-20 years of more.
