I'm Adam Norman. I wrote this book. It has some very good parts, including some very good analyses and criticisms of the capabilities approach. There is also some pretty good history of Little Bay Islands, the small community I studied.

But, to be honest, it's not a work of genius. It's OK. Download it for free from my website, adamnorman.com, and buy it if it makes you happy.
