Reviews

'Here is the guide we have been waiting for to the various pathways to development and prosperity, a roadmap to the main economic models of our time, and to the varied challenges they can involve.' - Martin Walker, Chief Executive Officer and Editor-in-Chief, United Press International 'This is an important volume! The papers put together by Kidd and Richter offer a rich variety of development models for analyzing the world economy. One of the great strengths of the volume is its breadth. The models go beyond pure economics, and also deal with culture, history and traditions. This is must reading for those interested in understanding the challenges and opportunities of the global economy.' - Sebastian Edwards, Henry Ford II Professor of International Economics, UCLA's Anderson Graduate School of Management Member, Governor Schwarzenegger's Council of Economic Advisors 'The reality of multiple capitalisms in a globalising world is starkly underlined by this powerful volume. It should be required reading for everyone who uses the word globalisation.' - Tom Spencer, Executive Director, ECPA
