Rezension zu „The Trouble with Africa - Why Foreign Aid Isn't Working “
"'A timely, intriguing and provocative book. The author's love of the continent shines through every line, yet his bold suggestions will raise eyebrows and provoke debate.' Baroness Lynda Chalker, former UK Secretary of State for Overseas Development 'boisterous, entertaining and highly accessible. Calderisi challenges the shibboleths of the aid industry with courage, compassion and humour. A timely and bracing read.' Michela Wrong, Author of In the Footsteps of Mr. Kurtz 'a blast of fresh air over a continent that has for decades been suffocating under a blanket of well-meant concern, ineffectual at best, and harmful at worst' Michael Holman, former Africa editor, Financial Times"
