This chapter offers three rationales as to why governments intervene in the product innovation process: the principle ‘more is better’; international comparisons; and market failure. Policy instruments are discussed in the light of earlier findings that firms that are innovative in one dimension tend to be innovative in others. The constraints to innovation (also touched upon in earlier chapters), institutional intellectual property rights and the optimality of their respective lives are discussed.

The chapter provides a wide-ranging look at prospects for ‘the hydrogen economy’ regarding fuel. In the European Union, hydrogen may be a means to address the intermittency of supply in the renewables sector. The US emphasis on hydrogen to operate motor vehicles contrasts with the EU’s broader climate change driven move to explore alternatives to fossil fuel. Regarding drivers of energy innovation, it is striking that the US introduction of hydrogen is specifically aimed at the transport sector and was driven by security of supply reasons rather than climate change.

Abstract:
Ancient Rome is an important turning point in Eurasian history. But it is also an interesting test case in its own right. In the past, the standard view was that ancient economies operated on a subsistence production basis and lacked technological innovation, and that therefore, economic growth in the modern sense was highly unlikely. Yet we have the sense that Rome was wealthy. Was this wealth simply another example of the efflorescence that has been possible at various times in history without regard to innovations in either technology or energy? Our answer is yes.

This chapter discusses current conceptualizations of heterogeneity in alcohol use disorder (AUD), characterizes developmental pathways that lead to different subtypes of AUDs, and discusses how such pathways can inform preventive program design. Specifically, it reviews the “internalizing” and “externalizing” developmental pathways to AUDs. The externalizing pathway is characterized by a core deficit in behavioral control, whereas the internalizing pathway is characterized by a core deficit in emotion regulation. Both pathways predict drinking onset and escalation to AUD for some individuals.
