Recent world events have created a compelling need for new perspectives and realistic solutions to the problem of sovereign debt. The success of the Jubilee 2000 movement in raising public awareness of the devastating effects of debt, coupled with the highly publicized Bono/O'Neill tour of Africa, and the spectacular default and economic implosion of Argentina have helped spur a global debate over debt.

EDITORIAL :
"Sovereign Debt at the Crossroads brings into sharp relief the multiple burdens that indebtedness imposes on the developing world. It explores the range of debt-related issues that must be addressed to lift poor countries and poor people out of poverty. The authors go beyond mere debt relief to examine a variety of ways forward including carefully designed economic reforms, expanded debt-for-nature swaps, better targeted aid, and freer trade. If you read one book on the debt crisis, this should be it."--Daniel C. Esty, Director, Yale Center for Environmental Law and Policy"Some of the leading thinkers unravel the complex challenges of debt management. This volume provides a wake-up call by offering comprehensive and innovative approachesinvaluable to policy makers and a great resource for students and scholars."--Richard Morgenstern, Senior Fellow, Resources for the Future

Questions of God and metaphysics are lumped in this category.
Despite being overshadowed by Russell and Wittgenstein, Ayer may have had the last laugh, for his influence on philosophy far surpassed theirs. His writing is not that powerful or skilled, but he has a disarming tone, which makes you feel you're always welcome in his world. Her "learn, do, teach" approach is very effective. It also could serve as the starting point for experimentation. However, it will help you
