Why have efforts to strengthen quality of governance so often failed in some of the world’s most troubled states? Because they almost always ignore the human side of politics.

Why has Asia developed while Africa lagged? The Asian Aspiration chronicles the stories of explosive growth and changing fortunes: the leaders, events and policy choices that lifted a billion people out of abject poverty within a single generation, the largest such shift in human history.

Distinguished politicians and scholars advocate the need for a 'democratic playbook' robust enough to withstand threats to free and fair elections in Africa.

Making Africa Work is a first-hand account and handbook of how to ensure growth beyond commodities and create jobs in the continent.

The literature on the 'developing world' is dominated by narratives of state failure, but few analysts have, until now, addressed why some of them turn it around.

In a battle for Tir Nan Og, the Land of the Young, Sláine, the former High King of Ireland, faces the formidable Sea Devils threatening his tribe. The story unfolds with Sláine's struggle to defend his people against this new wave of malevolence, showcasing themes of bravery and leadership in the face of adversity. As ancient legends come to life, readers are drawn into a rich tapestry of myth and adventure.

Why Africa is Poor looks at the fragile economic and political situation in Africa and makes the quite controversial argument that the main reason Africa’s people are poor is due to the choices made by their leaders.Dr Greg Mills draws extensively from his experiences running various presidential-level advisory teams across the continent and examines the policy choices that have stunted African development. In providing some answers to the conundrum of development, the book focuses on the way the global economy works, Africa’s record and the choices made by its leaders, the role of the outside world and the global aid regime. It assesses whether the odds are in Africa’s favour and identifies the areas where African leadership could make better choices.
