Media Reviews
... pulls no punches in giving a frank and impartial account....[this] slender volume makes fascinating reading. - Scott MacWilliam in ARAS ... here comes a refreshing note, not a glorifying one either, but nonetheless an even-handed analysis of the continent's economic future ... The book provides valuable insights for policy makers and development experts seeking to reverse the continent's unenviable record of performance. - Okori Uneke in MODERN AFRICAN STUDIES A sound, balanced and hopeful analysis of Africa's economic future... Essential reading for Africa's policy-makers. - Professor Gerry Helleiner, Department of Economics, University of Toronto
