"Aid Impact and Poverty Reduction is an edited volume that conceptualizes a broad notion of impact as the appropriate metric for the analysis of development aid. In so doing, it is poised to make a significant impact on our understanding of international development assistance as a prominent feature of the international political economy, and of the societies in which (and on which) it operates."- David Simon, Yale University
