‘This book provides a valuable discussion of the existing literature on technology and innovation, both theoretical and empirical, drawing lines for its relevance to the Third World and about future research agenda in these areas.’
– Oliver Binet, New Technology, Work and Employment
‘This is a very timely book and is likely to be of great help to policy makers and researchers. Its clean and smooth writing containing detailed information and intensive analysis of the ongoing technological revolution makes it interesting for the general readers as well.’
– L.P. Rai, Journal of Science and Research
New technologies will have an increasing effect on prospects for development and growth in the world economy. Technology and Innovation in the International Economy contains extensive and detailed assessments of two key areas of technological innovation which present both a threat and an opportunity for developing countries: micro-electronics and biotechnology.
