Addresses the digital divide, by exploring the relationship between information and communication technologies (ICTs) and development in Bangladesh, China, India, Ghana, Laos, Peru, and East Africa. This book concludes that ICTs do have the potential to serve and empower the poor, but only when the supporting infrastructure is in place.
