Description and Table of Contents

Description

In this book, French science analyst Jean-Claude Derian looks at the American technology system. As an outsider, Derian aims to provide interpretations and perspectives that those closer to the scene are likely to miss or dismiss, and he identifies important issues that he believes must be addressed if the United States is to retain world leadership in high technology.
