No I haven't. I will be sure to get it in the next month (which is when I plan to start reading again).

I'm sorry to say that because of a major project that I was working on, I did not have time to read any books that came out after December 2007. I took a quick look, its available online.

However, if you just want to get the facts about the role of foreign aid in underdeveloping Haiti, a good way to do that is to collect the articles that are generated by those who review the results.

Manny annual reports are written about these NGOs and government agencies; if you take the time to read them (as I have in the past) you will be amazed at the detailed information they provide.

Shalom to you too (I'm going to assume that you are Jewish)
