Omschrijving

The Bottom Billion is an elegant and impassioned synthesis from one of the world's leading experts on Africa and poverty. It was hailed as "the best non-fiction book so far this year" by Nicholas Kristoff of The New York Times.

Fluent, thought-provoking book.

Rarely can a book on this subject have been such a pleasurable read.

Every politician should read this.

There are hundreds of books on development but none as well written and authoritative as Paul Collier's 'The Bottom Billion'

Every politician should read this.

This is a short book, but one which brilliantly challenges conventional views about development and aid.

This extraordinarily important book should be read by everyone who cares about Africa.

A splendid book... rich in both analysis and recommendations... read this book.

It will change the way you look at the tragedy of persistent poverty in a world of plenty.

Set to become a classic. His book should be compulsory reading for anyone embroiled in the thankless task of trying to pull people out of the pit of poverty.

An arresting, provocative book. If you care about the fate of the poorest people in the world, and want to understand what can be done to help them, read this book. If you don't care, read it anyway.

Paul Collier is Professor of Economics and Director of the Centre for the Study of African Economies at Oxford University. Former Director of the Development Research group at the World Bank, he is one of the world's leading experts on African economies. Author of several books including Breaking the Conflict Trap, Collier has served as the senior adviser to Blair's Commission on Africa and his research has been featured in The Economist, The Washington Post, and The New York Times.
