There is now little doubt that the growth in development and application of information technologies (such as micro- electronics, computers and telecommunications systems) will affect the distribution of wealth within and between countries in the world economy. This book explores issues raised by this, using detailed empirical studies and an economic model of the world economy to evaluate the interrelated changes that will occur. It concludes with an examination of policy options which might make the 'information revolution' of benefit to all people.
