Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Standardization in Support of Development: Proceeding of a Seminar Held at the National Bureau of Standards, Gaithersburg, Maryland; October 17-18, 1977
In the seminar we have been pleased to have the cosponsorship of the American National Standards Institute and the American Society for Testing and Materials. Participants from the governmental and the private sectors have joined with officials of 14 foreign nations to make our discussions representative of a wide range of views.
The record of the discussions that follows will be helpful to the National Bureau of Standards as we pursue our joint program with the Agency for International Development. Also, I trust, it will be helpful to the officials of this and other countries as we strive to apply the methodology of measurement, standardization, and quality control to the betterment of the global society in which we all live.
