Focusing on the early development of biotechnology in the US and Japan, this comparative study examines the historical roots of recombinant DNA technology. It explores the tensions between regulatory frameworks and promotional policies while identifying key players and strategies that propelled the field in both nations. By developing theories in economic history and science policy, the book introduces a model that explains how variations in institutional, financial, and organizational resources influenced each country's approach to commercializing biotechnology.
