The book examines the government policies that acted as catalysts to the growth of high-tech industries in Taiwan, along with the roles of high-tech "incubators" and government-administered science parks. The authors provide case studies of high profile companies including Acer, Philips Semiconductors and Macronix International, and interviews with key decision makers to highlight the corporate strategies adopted in response to government policies and global commercial demand. Finally, insightful narratives on the birth and growth of a government-fostered strategic industry are provided, as is a synopsis of the Asian contribution to the evolution of the global microelectronics developmentSummary: 'Dragon appearing in the field' / Bor-Shiuan Cheng -- 'The cradle of technology' / Min-Ping Huang -- Science parks in Taiwan / Soo-Hung Terence Tsai and Chang-hui Zhou -- Macronix International Co.
