Reviews
Impressive as an encyclopedia, it has contributions from 100 people, including four Nobel Laureates with interest in Africa, as well as chief economists of multilateral organisations, finance ministers, governers of central banks and academics in leading universities., an unprecedented volume...Unlike earlier writers who have grabbed only part of the elephant of economic underdevelopment in Africa and run with it, the authors attempt to wrestle the whole creature.

- z***r (1263)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseGreat seller, exactly as pictured/described. quick shipping, well packaged. Books arrived in very, very good shape. A very good value for the price. Book was shipped sepeartely from the main package (4 books total) which caused some confusion when receiving them, but I figured it out. 2 tracking numbers actually used (2 packages), but only one was listed.
- 5***j (65)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseFantastic price for this item! Great seller, and the item arrived as described. It arrived in an unpadded mailer. Additionally, thank you for having a listing with *accurate* information about the presence of writing inside the book. (It explicitly said it didn't, which was clear to read and much appreciated!)! The book itself appears well-read, but is a clean internal copy, which works for my purpose :)
- _***9 (70)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBooks are just as shown in the pictures. Though a bit dirtier than expected, the price was right. Since the seller gave the package, which was well packed, directly to USPS, instead of an intermediate carrier, it arrived very quickly. I would buy from this seller again.
