It is the most thorough and authoritative analysis of foreign aid that I have seen. It is balanced and well argued and based on a broad range of relevant sources. In the literature on development, it is a landmark that no doubt will attract interest among both academics and professional aid administrators. - Goran Hyden
... truly timely and may be considered as definitive ... he succeeds brilliantly in his purpose. - Hans Singer in DEVELOPMENT POLICY REVIEW
Roger Riddell has made a major contribution to the current debate about overseas aid. His book is unique in containing an assessment of the ethical basis for aid, as well as an examination of the theoretical cases for and against it, and the evidence about what has worked and what has not. No previous book has covered this range of matter with anything approaching such scrupulousness and objectivity. - Robert Cassen in THE GUARDIAN
