Book Description

November 1998
This workbook accompanies the Wordpower dictionary. It is tailored to the needs of intermediate learners of American English who already possess some basic knowledge of English but are not yet ready to use a college dictionary for native speakers. They need the help that a learner's dictionary can provide: meanings explained clearly and simply, natural examples showing how words are really used and guidance on areas of difficulty in language and culture. Their need to increase their vocabulary is addressed by a network of cross-references and usage notes which guides them from one word to other useful vocabulary items.

Editorial Reviews

Review

`the introduction gives a nice summary of the concerns of the west with development in the third world.' G K Leiten, Economic and Politcial Weekly, August 12, 2000.

`Zaidi has worked hard to assess, in eleven chapters, the probable impact of neo-liberalism and the rolling back of the state in different institutions in Pakistan. He has succeeded extremely well.' G K Leiten, Economic and Politcial Weekly, August 12, 2000.

`This is a well-written book, which not only provides information on Pakistan [a country which is some years ahead of India in terms of tuning its policy t the exigencies imposed by Washington] but also involves an incisive analysis of the development discourse around devolution and NGOs.' G K Leiten, Economic and Politcial Weekly, August 12, 2000.

Zaidi has successfully shown the the actual working of international economics. In a very lucid manner, Akbar has been able to to sketch out a brief history of global economic development and the role the West has played in this regard. The eleven chapters of the book in fact, are individual articles and research papers by the author. Professionally abridged and edited, they have lost their individual capacity in the book where they have developed a collective momentum to keep the reader engrossed. A highly readable book, indeed, on an issue of paramount importance to the thinking souls of the 1990s. Humair Ishtiaq - Star Weekend, May 29th 1999. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
