Organized around such topics as bureaucracy, diplomacy, culture shock, transportation, scrapes, scams, language, hotels, food, health, institutions and love, the ninety anecdotes, poems and drawings of The Bottoms Up of International Development cover the real experiences of international development practitioners. Originally, the editors wanted to commit to paper the tales that international workers, diplomats, and other travelers tell one another as they move around the world. What they got is a collection of stories that are humorous, ironic, serious, implausible, and, profoundly instructive-as they should be. After all, the combined experience of the forty-five authors reaches over a thousand years of development effort in thirty different disciplines. It is a world of adventure put into one short book that demonstrates the work of international development from the bottom up.
