Berglund Center for Internet Studies Review by Jeffrey Barlow,
This review is from: Global Taiwan: Building Competitive Strengths In A New International Economy (East Gate Books) (Hardcover)
Global Taiwan, edited by Suzanne Berger and Richard K. Lester, is a daunting work that nonetheless is well worth the effort required to read it. It is the first of a series of titles to be published by the MIT Industrial Performance Center. If subsequent publications are as strong as this one, academic libraries, executives of informational technology firms, and serious students of international business should preorder the series now. Moreover, anyone with a strong interest in Sino-American relations should also read it. While it is probably too much to expect that members of Congress might read it, we hope that at least one staff member in every congressional office seriously concerned with East Asian or U.S. economic policy will read it and report to the boss.
