In the late 1980s and 1990s, the advanced industrial countries considered replacing the existing analogue television infrastructure with a new digital one. Hart's book shows how nationalism and regionalism produced incompatible standards in the USA, Japan and Europe, and led to missed opportunities in developing new technologies.
