Review "East Asia, Globalization, and the New Economy analyzes this global growth process. The book is particularly concerned with overcoming the "digital divide," the current and future impact of technology policies, and the potential benefits and difficulties posed by this growth pattern. It takes a systematic look at prospects for the future. Will the IT/e-business revolution help sustain East Asian growth?" "Written by a recognized expert in the area of global economics, this book offers the first book-length treatment of IT/e-business prospects in the region and questions whether these developments will renew and sustain the rapid economic development of East Asia. This up-to-date study will interest scholars, researchers, and practitioners in business and economic development."--BOOK JACKET.
