Science and technology in the developing world.

Science and technology in the developing world. SciDev.net went online last month, with the backing of the UK Department for International Development. Its main goal "is to enhance the ability of all its users to engage in informed debate on ways of applying science and technology to social and economic development in an environmentally responsible way." Hopefully, a useful tool for globalisation discussions.

Let's hope SciDev.net turns out to be a major step in improving world-wide access to science! If you are a researcher or academic reading this, the Association of Research Libraries (US) seeks your help in making scientific and scholarly literature more freely accessible on the web.
