Aid Without Development: A Tale Of International Consultants, Aid And Development

Author: Altaf, Samia
Paperback
Zed Books Ltd.
ISBN: 1842771639

This is a firsthand account of what really goes on in the world of international development assistance. Samia Altaf, senior official in the Department of Health in Washington DC, was caught up as a consultant in a huge World Bank-funded project to improve the abysmal conditions in the social sector in Pakistan. The project ended in much-publicized disaster-corruption, controversy, non-delivery, and an official fraud inquiry. This book is her story. Reading almost like a novel, at times hilarious, at others bringing tears to one's eyes, it is an engrossing and honest eyewitness account of why international aid fails more often than it succeeds in developing countries.
