'This book is an impressive, original and substantive contribution to the literature on capability development in "latecomer" firms. It furthers and deepens understanding of the intricate processes of technological learning and provides insights into the organisational needs of learning, and the interactions between particular strategies for learning. The amount of new empirical material is impressive, well presented and carefully analysed. The work can become a benchmark for future studies of capability building.' - The late Sanjaya Lall, Oxford University (at the International Development Centre at Queen Elizabeth House), UK Paulo Figueiredo comprehensively examines how and why latecomer companies differ in the manner and rate at which they accumulate technological capability over time. He focuses on how key features of the underlying learning processes influence the paths of technological capability accumulation and, in turn, the rate of improvement in operational performance.

'. . . this is a substantive contribution to the literature on capability development, one which breaks new ground on a hitherto little understood aspect of the knowledge management literature: knowledge management issues related with transition stage. . . Few researchers have addressed the full complexity of the transition process of capability development, drawing on such an impressive set of data and over such an extended period of time. By doing so, the book provides a range of new insights into knowledge management issues related with the process of capability development, namely, those related to the organizational knowledge creation within a latecomer firm. It should be read and discussed.' - Muriela Pádua, Journal of Evolutionary Economics Strategic management literature has, until now, concentrated on the analysis of how large innovative firms maintain, rebuild, or renew strategic capabilities. This important book illustrates the complex transition process involved as firms accumulate knowledge and develop new types of knowledge management to build the primary strategic capabilities.
