dc.description.abstract"Frank Harrigan writes that advances in physical technology and the capabilities that are required to master and use technology purposively are the foundation for material economic progress. Harnessing the benefits of technology requires more than acquiring technological hardware and the capabilities to use it. It is the demand for and the returns from adopting modern technology that will determine the assimilation, adoption, adaptation, and innovation of new technology"
