Although the leading Aid agencies (governmental and non-governmental) disperse vast sums of money, finding ways of channeling this to finance enterprises that will be successful in the sense that they will both survive and alleviate poverty has proved frustrating. This is a study of development banking in three continents: what works and what doesn’t. Vol I is synthesis + themes Vol II is cases.

Illustrated with stunning, jewel-toned art, and featuring a festive foil-trimmed jacket, this gracefully written picture book captures the true Christmas spirit in a way children can easily understand. In tender verse that flawlessly incorporates simple counting, Joy Hulme describes the night Jesus was born in a manger, surrounded by animals and with only straw to pillow his head. From the eight shepherds watching their flock to five angels singing, from three wise men bearing gifts to two parents looking with tender love upon one small baby, each image evokes what’s most meaningful about th

The day I entered the classroom for the very first time, I was floating on a cloud of happiness. For ten-year-old Dora Cookson, going to school for the first time is a dream come true. After moving from Utah to a homestead in New Mexico, Dora can’t wait to start school, to learn, and to make new friends. There’s only one problem -- Dora may be as old as the fourth graders, but she has to start in the first grade. Some kids snicker and say it’s because she’s dumb. But one girl named Cora Beth doesn’t think so, and becomes Dora’s first friend at school.

Climate change is not ’a problem’ waiting for ’a solution’. It is an environmental, cultural and political phenomenon which is re-shaping the way we think about ourselves, our societies and humanity’s place on Earth. Drawing upon twenty-five years of professional work as an international climate change scientist and public commentator, Mike Hulme provides a unique insider’s account of the emergence of this phenomenon and the diverse ways in which it is understood. He uses different standpoints from science, economics, faith, psychology, communication, sociol
