Abstract: Abstract In surveying so extensive a literature as that concerning the question of appropriate technology in less-developed countries one is forced to be unusually selective. Addressed to over a hundred such nations the issues that have been raised in discussing this question are large in number. The topics that I shall be discussing in this paper will therefore reflect my bias.
