4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction to Bangladesh, August 1, 2006
This review is from: Bangladesh: Promise and Performance (Paperback)
Coming from the United States, I arrived in Bangladesh not knowing what to expect. During my first several weeks there I was confused by much of the way society functioned. I happened upon a copy of Bangladesh: Promise and Performance and virtually devoured it.

While the writing can be a bit dry for some - it's really more a collection of academic papers than anything - it provides an excellent background from which to approach an understanding of Bangladeshi society.

I highly recommend this book as a window into the history and society of a nation that goes, unfortunately, unrecognized too often in our world.
