National Intellectual Capital: A Comparison of 40 Countries

Knowledge assets and intellectual capital are attracting the attention of all aspects of governance in the public and private sectors. To date, most studies of intellectual capital have focused at the organizational level.

More recently, pioneers in the field, including the authors of this book Dr. Carol Yeh-Yun Lin and Prof. Leif Edvinsson, have begun to apply these methodologies to a broader scope, with the objective of comparing the intellectual capital indices at the national or regional level.

With the belief that numbers talk and statistics hide valuable information, this book present the authors’€™ research findings, covering 14 years (1995-2008) of intellectual capital information. The authors are senior members of The New Club of Paris.
