Abstract
Consider the following observations about the People's Republic of China:A team of "workers, peasants and soldiers" adhering in 1976 to the principle that "education must serve proletarian politics and be combined with productive labor," and working in a "simple workshop built through self-reliance" successfully developed a 1024-bit MOS random access memory chip for computers "with 5000 transistors on a chip one-fourth of the size of a fingernail."
