Abstract
- The article presents information on several books on economics. The book "Private Foreign Investment and the Developing World," edited by P. Ady, contains ten papers delivered in a conference on private foreign investment. The discussions frequently amplify and elucidate the papers, and the coverage is fairly broad, including papers discussing the effects of current fiscal systems on the flow of investible funds, profits and goods, and several papers discussing joint ventures, both by private companies and government agencies. The book "The Remoter Rural Areas of Britain," by J. Ashton and W.H. Long, is a record of on the theme of adjustment problems of the areas of Great Britain that are relatively remote, either in geographical terms or in terms of their low level of access to transport and welfare facilities. Some other books are: "Southeast Asia's Economy in the 1970s"; "The Labour Government's Economic Record 1964-1970"; "Persistent Poverty: Underdevelopment in Plantation Economies of the Third World."
