I must suggest a book I read recently called The Idea Factory: Bell Labs and the Great Age of American Innovation. It is about Bell Labs, as you probably guessed from the title. Moreso, however, it is about how Bell Labs facilitated an environment that was conducive towards innovation, and how innovation involves much, much more than the " Eureka!" moment of discovery.
