Those countries that fail to adapt to the transformations driven by new technologies in industry, agriculture, health, environment, energy, education, and other sectors may find it difficult to avoid falling behind. This book represents a joint effort by the World Bank and the National Research Council to survey the status and effect of technology change in key sectors and to recommend action by the development organizations, government, private sector and the scientific and technological community. 606 $aTechnological innovations$zDeveloping countries$vCongresses 606 $aTechnology transfer$zDeveloping countries$vCongresses 615 0$aTechnological innovations 615 0$aTechnology transfer 676 $a609.1724 712 02$aTechnology and Development Steering Committee. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962017903321 996 $aMarshaling technology for development$94474047 997 $aUNINA
