Analytical Development Economics deals with theoretical issues in this important area of research and policy-making. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe author draws on a wide range of evidence and anthropological insights, including his own field experience, to keep the theory grounded in reality. His use of simple algebra, supported with diagrammatic methods, makes the argument in the book widely accessible. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a revision of his celebrated The Less Developed Economy: A Critique of Contemporary Theory: It incorporates recent theoretical advances in its comprehensive, up-to-date treatment of the subject. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt will be essential reading for students, researchers and teachers of economics, and for policy-makers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReviews:\u003cbr\u003e‘An admirable combination of introductory helpfulness and state-of-the-art coverage.
