Revolution at the Checkout Counter: The Explosion of the Bar Code - Wertheim Publications in Industrial Relations
Stephen A. Brown
Brown traces the origin and evolution of the Universal Product Code (U. P. C.)-a small rectangle of black and white bars which adorns virtually every retail item we purchase. The development of the U. P. C. illustrates the process of setting industry standards without government intervention and shows how systems of complementary technologies evolve.
