Reseña del editor

In this study, based on a review of the relevant literature, the author looks at both the direct and the indirect effects of micro-electronics, and attempts to show how various aspects of the micro-electronic revolution are linked with patterns of employment. The book focuses on the effect of the new technology on employment and on the quality of working life in industrialized countries and in the Third World, and also examines the prospects and problems of Third World economies in developing their own electronics sectors and applying the new technologies to their productive sectors.
