The White Man's Burden
Why the West's Efforts to Aid the Rest Have Done So Much Ill and So Little Good
William Easterly
This book by a well-known development economist is a scathing critique of the West's attempts to improve the lives of those in the developing world. With clarity and rigor, the author argues that the West must confront its history of ineffectiveness and make necessary changes. A timely and important work.
