Title: Conceptualizing technological change
First published: 1999
Description: "In this book, Parayil draws together current scholarship from disciplines ranging from history to economics to sociology as he develops a cohesive theory of technological change. Drawing on a detailed case study of the Green Revolution in Indian agriculture, Parayil convincingly argues that technological change is contingent upon the social-historical process of knowledge change. Thus, he explores the policy implications of analyzing technological change as a problem-solving activity.

This book will also be valuable for those interested in such practical applications as understanding the process of technology transfer."--BOOK JACKET.
