We all want to help. Over the past fifty years $1 trillion of aid has flowed from Western governments to Africa, with rock stars and actors campaigning for more. But this has not helped Africa. It has ruined it. Dambisa Moyo's excoriating and controversial book reveals why millions are actually poorer because of aid, unable to escape corruption and reduced, in the West's eyes, to a childlike state of beggary. "Dead Aid" shows us another way. Using hard evidence to illustrate her case, Moyo shows how, with access to capital and with the right policies, even the poorest nations can turn themselves around. First we must destroy the myth that aid works - and make charity history.

内容有些过时（？

高一的时候老师上课要用的书，迷迷糊糊的看完了。当时课堂讨论的时候和印度同学都快吵起来，坚定的辩护着教育是改变非洲窘境的唯一方法。现在想想，还是太天真。

因为一句话，种一棵树最好的时机是十年前，其次是现在

有几处论证方式清奇，对发展经济学愈发没有兴趣。。。
