The International Computer Software Industry cover

This book surveys the industry evolution, structure, and firm strategies in the computer software industries of three leading industrial regions (USA, Japan, and Western Europe) and one emerging market-based economy (Russian Federation).

This is a very timely collection of essays which examines the structure of the software industry from a number of perspectives, and includes some useful historical analysis ... a number of fascinating issues are raised and discussed concerning the shaping and location of the industry and its relationship to the computer hardware industry. David Mowery's contributions and editorial grasp ensure a readable and well-ordered text. Given the paucity of good general studies of this important industry, this collection is certainly to be recommended. * Business History *
