Essential for Development Studies August 2, 2007
J. Cravens (Bonn, Germany)
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book was (still is?) the core textbook for the Open University's Master-level course on Development Management (TU971). Whether you are new to development practice or a veteran with many years experience, this brings the most oft used development theories and terminology into one place, explaining their origins and their key concepts. After I started reading this book, I started realizing that the terminology was all around me in my work own work in development. Six years after reading the book the first time, I still refer to it frequently for my work. I'm not giving it five stars because it really does need to be updated for the post 911 world.
