Reviews
The book offers a very easy and good read for beginners and the seminary questions at the end of each chapter represent a useful tool for academic tutors at university level. - Mohammad Alsaghir, Markfield Institute of Higher Education, UK Dr. Shahrukh Khan's new textbook is a fantastic book for teachers and students trying to get into the field of development economics. [...] What sets this work apart is the centrality it places on covering all of the diversity in the field of development economics. From neo-Marxists to neo-liberals and everything in between, the book honors and critiques the value of each approach to understanding development. The book is easily read, engaging, and perfect for anyone looking to teach an intro to development class. - Sidney Michelini, New Books in Economics Podcast on the New Books Network (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/shahrukh-khan-development-economics-critical-introduction/id425187524)
