Reviews

Cultivating Their Own explores the limitations of development plans designed and implemented from above without the input of those for whom the development is intended. The book is a significant contribution to the literature on development planning in agrarian societies. Shadrack Nasong'o, Professor of International Studies, Rhodes College. This is a carefully researched and clearly written local history, which provides a timely reminder of the importance of grounding policy interventions in local realities. Sara Berry, Academy Professor and Professor Emeritus of History, Johns Hopkins University
