Synopsis

A comprehensive account of the core topics in development economics. This book examines the reasons why a few countries have achieved a high level of affluence while the majority remain poor and stagnant. It represents a combination of classical political economy, modern institutional theory, and current development issues, bound together through the East Asian development experience.

Review

Excellent texts on development economics, which offer alternative approaches to the study of this important and growing branch of economics. Lecturers will want to find room on their reading lists in the next academic year. (Nigel Grimwade, London South Bank University.)
