About my library My interests in labour, political, environmental and social history. Economics, social and political theory and law. The fate of socialism. Emphasis on Australia but much on US and Europe. Also some unique manuscripts, especially some internal Labor Party stuff, government reports and University theses and a fairly random collection of fiction. Numbers slightly inflated by inclusion of short Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) reports. The date in comments is the date of purchase when I noted this. Sometimes I haven't included a book as read when I have read it before buying my copy but sometimes I have. Editions don't always match covers.

By the looks of your library, you seem like the one to ask this quesion to. I'm hoping to find a book that offers a representative selection of concise case studies in economic development, preferably something that explores more than a government's fiscal and trade policies. The one book I've read on the subject is Economic Backwardness in Historical Perspective, which was quite insightful but outdated and rather narrow/sporadic in scope. Thanks!
Geoff,

Your library is the most useful one on librarything. I have to confess I poke around in it when I'm looking for good things to read.
