'this handsome volume ... presents a number of very useful surveys,
mirroring the balanced contributions on theoretical and policy
issues of Ian Little's own life work ... It should serve as a
valuable reference for many development economists.'

on economic development'
Duvvuri Subbarao, The Economic Times

evidence and sensible policy advice found in these papers provides
a fitting tribute to the work of Ian Little, and this volume should
be of interest to a wide circle of readers'
Chris Scott, London School of Economics, Economica, Feb '91
`well and clearly written'
