N2  - This volume provides insights on technological change as an aspect of economic development. It is a general consideration of the role of technology in developing economies, employing examples from Mexico and Puerto Rico as illustrations. The focus is on practice rather than theory, although practice is treated in general terms, seeking to identify processes applicable to all developing economies.
The analysis of the various facets of technological transfer, the difficulties entailed, and the types of technological innovation appropriate and necessary to developing nations is thought provoking.
