An Essential Text

World Development

World development is an increasingly important aspect of A-level studies in Geography and growing numbers study it as an A-level. There is, however, no standalone core textbook offering an introduction to all the key issues in World Development - this is invaluable to teachers. It also includes case studies, which will be supplemented with updated case studies on a dedicated website. With over 30 years as the leading resource for teachers of geography and world development, New Internationalist have created an invaluable textbook.

Zoe Smolen

For a textbook it does a nice job of laying out a wide variety of issues and presents them in a very accessible way. However, I would only recommend it for newcomers of the topic as I found it almost too simplified.
