Review: Innovation II
Explanation
In this question, we know what the author thinks of the
traditional definition: it is "of limited relevance" (line 12). Which answer
choice fits that best? It will be a negative judgment, so (A), (C) and (D) are
out; we also definitively haven't been given sufficient information to know
(D). That leaves (B) and (E). Is the traditional definition less useful, or
less rigorous? If it's irrelevant, it's not worth much; it's less useful. The
definition might actually be more rigorous than the practical definition--for
example, by limiting innovation to organizations--but it's more rigorous in an unuseful way.
The correct answer is (B).
