He has taught at Vassar College and Columbia University. Segal is the author of "Advantage: How American Innovation Can Overcome the Asian Challenge" (W.W. Norton, 2011) and "Digital Dragon: High-Technology Enterprises in China" (Cornell University Press, 2003), as well as several articles and book chapters on Chinese technology policy.
