For an ostensibly academic book, this is an approachable account of postcolonialism, history, development, and politics. At times it can get lost in redundancy or theory, but on the whole this is a great read that deconstructed a lot of assumptions I had about development. The practical examples and historical anecdotes really bring the theory to life.
