Discover 'Gambling on Development,' a compelling exploration of the dynamics of global development from renowned author Stefan Dercon. This insightful book, published by Hurst Publishers in 2022, provides an in-depth analysis of why some countries achieve remarkable progress while others struggle. Through engaging conversations with influential figures—such as prime ministers, civil servants, and everyday citizens—Dercon highlights critical moments in the developmental journey of nations.As the world evolves, the landscape of poverty has witnessed significant transformation—decreasing overall in many parts while life expectancy and health have improved. Yet, the barriers faced by certain nations raise crucial questions: What differentiates prosperous countries from those that remain stagnant?
In 'Gambling on Development,' Dercon posits that the success of a nation relies not on rigid policies but on a vital 'development bargain.' This concept emphasizes the shift of a country’s elite from self-preservation towards investing in a collective growth future. Amidst the imperfections of such arrangements, successful models emerge from unexpected places, including China, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Ghana, and Ethiopia. This book encompasses diverse perspectives anchored in three decades of experience across over forty countries, detailing transformative moments that shape nations—from coping with Ebola in Sierra Leone to the economic intrigues in Malawi and the mobile revolution in Mozambique. Join the journey and learn about the power of collaborative growth strategies, showcasing paths to development that may inspire future successes worldwide.

Great Looking Shelf
Color: Brown, Size: 4Tier48in, Color: Brown, Size: 4Tier48in
I love this shelf! It took two people to hang it and you definitely want to ensure you hit a stud on at least one side or 1-2 screws if mounting between studs. It is heavy but a single person can lift it, just not maneuver easily due to its dimensions. It has a ton of room and fits mini helmets nicely in my office. Where I mounted it made it difficult to an extent to install but if you are even somewhat handy, you’ll be fine. You absolutely need a stud finder to hang this shelf. Sorry, I’m married! I would buy this shelf, or versions of it, again. Very practical and useful to display autographs, housewares or decor.
Last note: do not over tighten the poles. The wood is soft and the poles are light weight. They are not traditional black pipe and weigh far less.

AWESOME Look and Quality
Color: Brown, Size: 2Tier60in
I love these shelves and have bought additional for other areas in the house. I love the look of the industrial pipes, the color of the shelves is perfect, they are sturdy and hold a lot of weight. They are somewhat difficult to assemble, but it's expected as hanging shelves are never fun to hang. I love them. If you are on the fence, just do it :)

Nice, but a bear to install
Color: Black, Size: 3Tier48in
Quality product that looks good on our shiplap wall of the wet bar space. The install was a real trip and extremely difficult. You definitely need 2 or more people to install as the direction tell you to put the entire item together, then hang on the wall. This makes it impossible to do yourself.
