Summary: Intercountry comparisons play an essen tial part in understanding the processes of economic development and in the formu lation of development policy. Hitherto, although many analyses have been made within separate fields, they have been difficult to combine, as they used different methods and data bases. By treating the material within a uniform econometric framework this book is able to provide a consistent picture of the process of development as a whole, to describe a number of interrelated types of structural change, and to identify systematic dif ferences in development patterns among countries following different strategies. Not only are the results of considerable importance, but the wealth of data, presented on a country-by-country basis, makes the book also an invaluable source of information.
