摘要:
AbstractThe returns to research are uncertain. It is shown that, if returns are marginally diminishing in relation to effort, a simple probabilistic argument favours the idea of splitting the research effort into two (or more) semi-independent parts. An example is drawn from the field of plant breeding. The argument is analogous to that first developed by Daniel Bernouilli in his invention of utility.
