Summary

Though the fact gets little international attention, Africa in recent years has seen unprecedented economic growth, a boom that stretches back to 2000 and has made a huge difference in the lives of citizens in countless nations. Nonetheless, the continent still faces major development challenges. This book brings together a sterling roster of contributors to analyze present and future development in Africa, post-Millennium Development Goals. It presents twelve major public policy conversations that they deem essential to Africa's future growth and success.--, Provided by Publisher
