'… an instructive guide … a remarkable book which provides essential data for any informed discussion of vital world problems … so often dominated by ill-informed debate. This book should prove necessary reading for all policy makers and philanthropists concerned with seriously tackling the world's challenges.' Nicholas Newman, www.oxfordprospect.co.uk
