Summary: 'This landmark volume offers a timely and outstanding contribution, and is a most serious and sophisticated attempt to approach the tension between economic development and moral standards in Asia. John Kidd and Frank-Jurgen Richter call strongly for more inclusive, pro-people, dynamic, and interactive forms of economic policies attuned to the evolving realities in Asia, and put a premium on the rule of law and good governance which must be home-grown in each country because these cannot be outsourced.' - Fidel V. Ramos, Chairman, Ramos Peace and Development Foundation; and former President
