The benefits accrue to individuals and also to society at large. An international and interdisciplinary symposium was organized by the International Space University to bring together technical and non-technical people to consider the future applications of space techniques to tele-services. The proceedings of this symposium are essential reading for all who should appreciate the broad range of issues involved in this developing area.
