The Lords of Poverty: The Power, Prestige, and Corruption of the International Aid Business by Graham Hancock

richard_f's review

4.0

The "culture of aid", the corruption, the waste, the destruction as chronicled in this book is amazing (see pages 62-63 for an example). Although it was written in 1989, and most examples are from the 1980s, it would appear to be equally (or more) valid today.
Eye opening perspective.
