BIBLIOGRAPHY

This bibliography concentrates on the following areas: technology transfer systems, communication for technology transfer, new extension and systems paradigms, rapid and participatory appraisal, participatory research and distance learning. It is by no means an exhaustive bibliography. Additional annotated bibliographies were prepared during the study dealing with farming systems research in the Philippines but which were not added to this report due to space limitations.
