Nearly two decades after Rwanda's horrific genocide, the country has been transformed. High rises are going up in the capital city of Kigali; a newly established stock exchange is attracting investors; and the economy is transitioning from subsistence agriculture to information and communication technology. In pursuit of the alchemy that made Rwanda such an unlikely success story, Patricia Crisafulli and Andrea Redmond interviewed Rwandan government officials, including current president Paul Kagame, as well as business leaders, foreign investors, NGOs, and everyday civilians. In Rwanda, Inc. they look at the key factors that allowed this tiny country to beat the odds--including Rwanda's efforts to encourage private sector development and foster entrepreneurship, and how Kagame's unique leadership approach led to gains in health, education, and food sustainability. They also explore what the future holds for this resilient nation, and the steps it's taking to develop the next generation of public servants. With so many eyes on Africa as nations rebuild in the wake of the Arab Spring, this is a timely and fascinating look at what other emerging democracies can learn from Rwanda's triumph.

Accidentally ordered the workbook

I thought I was ordering the book, but got the workbook by accident. It looks really good! Keeping it, off to order the actual book instead. 🏃‍♀️

Chapter 24 missing from the book
Format: Paperback
A friend and I wanted to do this study of NT Wrights New Testament in It's World. It's a very large book and has 37 chapters. Well, last week when we were talking about the next chapters to read I realized I have 2 chapter 23 and chapter 24 is missing. Missing!! How do you have a 1000 page book and you're missing a chapter. I'm obviously after the point of getting a replacement from Amazon and the publisher will not replace it because I didn't purchase from them. What the heck. I'm very disappointed. The book is wonderful and I want to be made whole. I've submitted 2 requests to Amazon (one today and one 5 days ago) and have not heard anything from them. If you buy this book, look through and make sure you have all the chapters you are supposed to have.
