About this title

Synopsis

This book is intended for all who are committed to human wellbeing and who want to make our world fairer, safer and more fulfilling for everyone. It argues that to do better we need to know better and provides evidence that what we believe we know in international development is often distorted or unbalanced by errors, myths, and biases.
