Great scholarly book on telecoms policy, the Internet and innovation

Peter Cowhey (UCSD and now the Senior Counselor at USTR) and Jonathan Aronson (USC) have a new book out from MIT Press. It can be downloaded under a Creative Commons license.

Transforming Global Information and Communication Markets: The Political Economy of Innovation explains why global information and communication markets matter, why change is needed, and what should be done.

I was an early reader of the book in draft and was very impressed -- this is good, insightful scholarship.
