I have read the book, and as expected from one of the world's leading experts on international experts on international science and technology, it is very good.
The book counterposes the internationalization of science through increasingly elaborated networks of collaboration verses the concentration of activity in scientific clusters primarily located in rich countries.
The book is not only dry statistics, but includes appropriate illustrative examples of research projects and interviews with key informants, making it readable and indeed a pleasant read.
The final chapter provides some thoughtful and important recommendations for science policy in developed and developing nations.
My hat is off to the author!
