Chapter 1 describes the tension between the goals of policymakers who seek to make research and development (R&D) a cornerstone of national economic progress and the reality that R&D programs operate in a complex environment where program design and implementation is challenging and success is difficult to measure. The chapter also summarizes how the rest of the book offers insights and tools to improve the opportunities for success in government R&D programs.
