The papers presented under the topic 
"Socio-Economic Aspects and Policy-
Making'' are primarily concerned with 
cost/benefit models for information ser-
vices and quantitative contributions of in-
formation and information technology to 
productivity in business and industry. 
Inge Berg Hansen discusses the need for 
national information policies and the de-

September 1987 

sign of one such policy in Denmark. 
On the whole, this volume does not pro-

vide a comprehensive overview of the 
field: it is a haphazard collection that ·~ 
presents diverse opinions on different as-
pects of informat~on and information tech-
nology in the public and private sectors.-
