Reviews

`The book is a collection of ten articles that focus on broad comparative analysis of innovation and growth, information technology, and regional technical progress. The editors are to be commended for their efforts in producing this book. Studies of long-run technical change and competitiveness are rarely undertaken in our short-run world, and such studies are of great importance for Europe in the global economy. . . . a very useful and valuable book. . . . I recommend this work to any library or professor's bookshelf where technological change and Europe are of interest.' -- Joseph Dahms, Journal of Economic Issues
