The role of telecoms goes well beyond the little daily stories of using the Internet or our mobile phones.

The authors of this book, two distinguished telecoms specialists, decode the full magnitude of he telecommunication sector using resources from not only he fields of economics and technology, but also history and ociology. The book takes an audacious stance: it places telecoms in he context of a third industrial revolution, that of the digital age, equivalent to the steam engine and railroads of the first industrial revolution. It shows how information and communication technologies (ICTs) are an essential part of our economy, and how they increasingly shape and structure other sectors (tele-services, tele-medicine, etc.). With great insight, the authors explore various key telecoms trends to answer the questions: how do we reduce the digital divide? What new consumer habits stem from ICTs? And, finally, what is their impact on the development of emerging countries ? | Note de contenu : | 1. Telecom consumer habits : background and perpective p.21
