The Infinite Alphabet

Knowledge is treated here as a dynamic system shaped by growth, diffusion, and decay. Drawing on examples from Ecuador, China, postwar Italy, and the United States, the book examines how ideas move across industries, borders, and networks, and why that movement matters for innovation and economic development.

The focus is on the principles that govern how knowledge is created, shared, and transformed over time. It offers a clear, accessible account for readers interested in business, economics, and the wider forces that influence national growth.
