Appropriate Technology : Five Growth Puzzles Solved?

This paper is motivated by the idea of "appropriate technology" and its implications for economic growth.

It is argued that this correlation can help explain international TFP differences and some other findings of previous researchers, including five puzzles that have emerged from the empirical growth literature
