For a prominent non-economist applying some economistic and game theoretic
models, see
The Advancement of Science : Science Without Legend, Objectivity
Without Illusions, by Philip Kitcher.
Oxford Univ Press, 1993 (ppb reprint April 1995).
espy the last chapter,
8. The Organization of Cognitive Labor
By the way, for *some* books including this one, the web bookseller
amazon.com has posted the table of contents (and more).
Some philosophers of science are concerned about Protecting Philosophy of
Science From Economics as personified by non-economist Kitcher.
