I am greatly indebted to Jon Samuels for excellent research assistance, as well as useful comments. J. Steven Landefeld, Clinton McCully, and David Wasshausen of the Bureau of Economic Analysis provided valuable data on information technology in the U.S. Tom Hale, Mike Harper, Tom Nardone and Larry Rosenblum (BLS), Kurt Kunze (BEA), Eldon Ball (ERS), Mike Dove and Scott Segerman (DMDC) also provided data for the U.S. and helpful advice. Iamgratefulto JohnBaldwinandTarekHarchaoui of Statistics Canada for data on Canada, Kazuyuki Motohashi and Koji Nomura for data on Japan, and Alessandra Colecchia, Marcel Timmer and Bart Van Ark for data on Europe. Colleagues far too numerous to mention have contributed useful suggestions. I am grateful to all of them but retain sole responsibility for any remaining deficiencies.References
