The author explores the evidence, instances where aid has failed, and the ways in which politics distorts aid. This book aims to provide an overall understanding of aid, shedding light on its moral and ethical assumptions. Riddell dissects the complexities of aid, separating fact from assumption, and detailing practical changes needed for aid to be a force for good. By doing so, he provides a balanced view of foreign aid, one that is both informative and thought-provoking. With 507 pages, this paperback edition offers a comprehensive analysis of aid, making it an essential read for those interested in business, economics, development, and international relations.
