Description
This book is about international development and how it has changed over the years. It discusses different issues that are currently facing developing countries, and provides solutions and new ideas for how to improve the situation.
This reissue, first published in 1978, confronts a whole range of international development issues: hunger, energy, supply, population growth, pollution, the state of the cities, nuclear proliferation. Geoffrey Lean explains the interdependent contemporary crises within developing nations and presents the facts behind them, alongside the practical solutions, new strategies and fresh thinking present in contemporary development thinking.
