The second chart shows the number of scientists and technicians per 1000 people in these countries.

The number of scientists increased in both developing and developed countries.

The quantity of scientists in developing countries doubled, while it in industrialized countries rose almost in four times.

The last chart explains the reason why developing countries lag behind industrialized ones in scientific sphere.

The expenses on research and development in developing countries halved between 1980 and 1990, in comparison, the governments of industrialized countries doubled their funds on scientific research during this decade.

To sum up, the charts illustrate the straight relation between the expenditures on science and the level of its development.
