Reviews

'This is a thoughtful, insightful and challenging contribution. It engages deeply and critically with scholarly, empirical and policy contributions from wide geographical bases. Xiang develops a proposal for enabling cleantech development and transfer both globally and locally, moving beyond a focus on transfer to developing countries, and this warrants serious consideration.' - Abbe Brown, University of Aberdeen, UK

‘Technology development and transfer are vital to confronting the climate crisis, but the relationship between cleantech and intellectual property rights has too often been simply asserted or assumed. In this much-needed book, Professor Xiang applies rigorous and evidence-based analysis and advances fresh conclusions and a bold proposal for how to make progress.’ -- Stephen Minas, UNFCCC Technology Executive Committee ‘This is a thoughtful, insightful and challenging contribution. It engages deeply and critically with scholarly, empirical and policy contributions from wide geographical bases. Xiang develops a proposal for enabling cleantech development and transfer both globally and locally, moving beyond a focus on transfer to developing countries, and this warrants serious consideration.’ -- Abbe Brown, University of Aberdeen, UK
