(From Industry Week) IW details the strategic and often gut-wrenching shifts taking place in manufacturing in this seven-part series about making things in the U.S. and elsewhere. The series is about trade and R&D, and about marketing and workforces. It is about economic development. And it is about companies committed to making products in the U.S.A.
