THE TIME-TRAVELLING ECONOMIST - CHARLIE ROBERTS...

This insightful and original book explores the key issues that countries in Africa and South
Asia need to address in order to escape poverty. Challenging traditional assumptions about the
world's poorest countries  the top priorities to address are identified as adult literacy 
electricity for manufacturing  and the consequence of the relationship between fertility and
savings. These suggestions are placed within a historical perspective  placing discussions on
modern day Africa and South Asia alongside the development of East Asia  Europe  and the
Americas in previous generations and centuries. The Time-Travelling Economist aims to move
conversations about development beyond the resource curse or private sector failings  with a
fresh focus on the policies that governments can embark on independently and affordably that
will transform their future. It will be of interest to anyone interested in the future of the
world's low income countries.
