Astounding Memories In Developing Countries

Of all the books in the world, the best stories are found between the pages of a passport. From a seaport in Yemen to an airport in the jungles of Equatorial Guinea, from a dam in Mali to a highway in Mongolia, a development practitioner narrates 12 astounding incidents that are funny, sad, stressful or plain bizarre. Each story gives a glimpse from the intersection of travel, projects and human interactions, while describing aspects of a country from a critical observer point of view. After millions of miles travelled, hundreds of infrastructure projects observed impacting tens of millions of lives, one genuine truth prevails - billions of dollars in infrastructure can only bring about sustainable change when coupled with investment in human capital. Genuine education is the foundation of civilizations.
