Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution and development of research communities within the field of neural networks, a field inspired by theories of neurological processes in biological organisms. The author examines the sociological dimensions of the research community, focusing on two distinct phases: the "bootlegging" phase and the "bandwagon" phase. The book analyzes the characteristics, attitudes, and behaviors of researchers who enter the field during each phase and their underlying motivations and factors influencing their entry and exit decisions. Through a survey of 710 researchers, the author uncovers significant differences between "bootleggers" (those who enter during the early, underfunded phase) and "bandwagoners" (those who enter during the rapid growth phase). Delving into the thematic depth of these phases, the book sheds light on the challenges and opportunities faced by researchers in each phase, including funding availability, peer recognition, and perceived progress. The author also explores the factors that contribute to the transition between phases, providing insights into the dynamics of research community evolution. Ultimately, this book offers valuable perspectives on the nature of scientific research, particularly the role of individual researchers and the influence of social and economic factors on the development and institutionalization of new technologies. Its insights are not only relevant to the field of neural networks but also have broader implications for understanding the evolution of scientific communities in general.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the role of students in science and technological pioneering through a comparative study of neural network scientists. Pioneers who initiate research in the field during their studies are compared to those entering afterward, and to peers who join the field once it gains recognition. The author finds that pioneering students are remarkably similar to other academic pioneers in their motivations for entering and persisting in the field, despite common assumptions about student naivety and susceptibility to conventional wisdom. This suggests that the pioneering spirit may originate early in a scientist's career, challenging the traditional view of problem choice in science as determined solely by cognitive factors within science or social dynamics. The book's insights shed new light on the potential contribution of students to the emergence of new fields and the importance of nurturing pioneering spirit in education.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the characteristics of pioneering scientists and their motivations for choosing and persisting in research fields before they gain widespread recognition. Analyzing a survey of neural network researchers, the author finds pioneers to be more driven by the intrinsic intellectual appeal of a subject than by social dynamics. They are less influenced by peers, funding opportunities, or rewards. Compared to their non-pioneering colleagues, pioneers are more likely to perceive their research as their primary interest and intend to stay in the field longer, indicating a strong commitment to their work. Through in-depth examination of pioneering scientists, the book provides valuable insights into the initial stages of scientific discovery and the factors that shape the emergence of new fields of study.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines scientists who choose and remain in an emerging field of research, specifically focusing on comparing scientists who enter early with those who follow later when the field achieves broader acceptance. The author presents an in-depth study of neural network scientists, analyzing quantitative survey data from over 700 researchers in the field. By contrasting early entrants to the field with scientists who entered later, the book uncovers differences in their motivations. Early entrants, for example, are less influenced by social dynamics within the research community, and more strongly influenced by the subject matter's intellectual appeal. The book concludes that early entrants who persist in a field are distinct from those who follow, particularly in their motivations for choosing and remaining in their chosen field.
