      note = {Price : NLG; Supplier : Nedbook, Amsterdam; The completion  of the European internal market in 1992 and the challenge  from Japanese industry has stimulated growing interest in  government funding of European collaboration in advanced  technology. This book examines European collaboration in  detail. The various approaches to implementing government  funding are discussed, as well as providing an overview on  the justifications for such funding. A number of previous  and current projects aimed at European collaboration are  examined, focusing on those issues which distinguish them  from national projects. Examples are given by reviewing  schemes such as AIRBUS, ARIANE, ESPRIT, EUREKA and TORNADO.  The European communication satellite programme is analyzed,  giving special attention to the development of projects  such as OTS/ECS, OLYMPUS and TV-SAT/TDF. Also included is  an extensive bibliography, tables and a keyword index.  Contents : ... 1.
