Corianne Teague _orianne_eague — The character of Roz Forrester first appeared in the book, Original Sin, by Andy Lane---published by Virgin Books. So, when Virgin Books could not longer publish Doctor Who novels (licensing issues), they could publish Dr. Who spinoffs. So, these ten stories tell the future history of EArth through the family saga of the Forresters over a span of a thousand years. Written by different authors---including WHO authors Kate Orman and Justin Richards----the ten stories are acceptable SF in their own right. A solid group of short stories which do not include the Doctor but do include some interesting ideas. Recommended for any SF fan. Read before I joined GR so dates are unknown.

Ram Kumar dezigneram — Stephen King has added to his long list of terrific novels with 11/22/63. This was not only a great time travel story, but an interesting love story as well. His descriptions of everyday life in the late 1950s and early 1960s were spot on, and his characters were people you came to really care about in this novel. Another sucess for Mr. King!

Ahmed Osama ahmadosama2012f3cb — Arturo Escobar’s book Encountering Development is one of the foundational works of post-development studies. His research calls into question development as an institution, as an ordering system, and as a tool of capitalism and western hegemony. Instead of an objective science, Escobar--building on the traditions of Edward Said, Michel Foucault, and James Ferguson--argues that instead we should think of development as a powerful discourse of power and control. Within this discursive system, Escobar argues “development” dictates what can be thought and not thought. Escobar’s aim, then, is to hold up development itself as an object of study. Citing Donna Haraway, Escobar writes, “To treat science as narrative is not to be dismissive. On the contrary, it is to treat it in the most serious way, without succumbing to its mystification as “the truth”” (p. 19-20). In this way, Escobar is also carrying on the tradition of questioning the strategic alliances of knowledge and power. In the Saidian tradition (also Foucault), the Third World is a site of intervention for power of knowledge, a field in which to work, and a place where the other is reproduced in order to reaffirm hegemonic identity (in this case, Western dominance and the ethos of the market). As Escobar says, almost by fiat, two-thirds of the world’s people were transformed into poor; the concept of the poor was created so that it could be solved with the solutions already on hand (p. 13). Though the project might change, the essential nature of the solution remains the same. The expertise remains the same, and the solutions remain divorced from the local nature of the problem. As Batterbury and Fernando (2004) write on frequent criticisms of Escobar, the discourse of development is far from the essentialist bureaucratese that Escobar depicts it as. In addition, analysis that emphasizes politics and power miss much of the problems of livelihood and production that are real and not simply constructed features of the developing world (p. 116-117). This book will remain a controversial classic for everyone interested in development, both those critical of development and those hoping to become practitioners.
