505 0  From mitigating risk to managing uncertainty -- 
       Reorganizing the state -- Organizing bio-industry -- 
       Manufacturing "progress" -- Regulatory uncertainty. 
520    After World War II, several late-developing countries 
       registered astonishingly high growth rates under strong 
       state direction, making use of smart investment strategies,
       turnkey factories, and reverse-engineering, and taking 
       advantage of the postwar global economic boom. Among these
       economic miracles were postwar Japan and, in the 1960s and
       1970s, the so-called Asian Tigers--Singapore, South Korea,
       and Taiwan--whose experiences epitomized the analytic 
       category of the "developmental state." In Betting on 
       Biotech, Joseph Wong examines the emerging biotechnology 
       sector in each of these three industrial dynamos. They 
       have invested billions of dollars in biotech industries 
       since the 1990s, but commercial blockbusters and 
       commensurate profits have not followed. Industrial 
       upgrading at the cutting edge of technological innovation 
       is vastly different from the dynamics of earlier practices
       in established industries. The profound uncertainties of 
       life-science-based industries such as biotech have forced 
       these nations to confront a new logic of industry 
       development, one in which past strategies of picking and 
       making winners have given way to a new strategy of 
       throwing resources at what remain very long shots. Betting
       on Biotech illuminates a new political economy of 
       industrial technology innovation in places where one would
       reasonably expect tremendous potential--yet where billion-
       dollar bets in biotech continue to teeter on the brink of 
       spectacular failure. -- Book jacket.
