Reviews

“The strength of this book is that it aims to shift the focus from Zambia’s economic troubles away from forces outside its control … . this is a well-researched and valuable book. With a dense bibliography and a clearly organized format, this book is heavily recommended for scholars of African economic development and others interested in the mechanisms behind economic growth.” (Craig J. Richardson, EH.Net, March, 2016)
