Seller notes: This book is the first systematic attempt to examine the attempts of third world countries to enforce an effective transfer of technology and the factors shaping their varying degrees of success; it argues that a new strategy is required, one that is geared to raising the technological level of the majority of the population, and advocates radical programs based in part on expanding domestic mass markets by raising the purchasing power of the poor; the author is a nuclear physicist and development economist (pictorial cover, pages tanned, otherwise a bright, clean, tight copy)
