Excerpt
The first workshop of the recently established Chemical Sciences Roundtable (CSR), “Assessing the Value of Research in the Chemical Sciences,” was held in Washington, D.C., in September 1997. The topic of discussion was an issue of long-standing importance that has taken on even greater significance since the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) was enacted in 1993. This volume presents the results of that workshop.
