Great new blog

William Easterly professor of economics at New York University and author of The White Man’s Burden: Why the West’s Efforts to Aid the Rest Have Done So Much Ill and So Little Good, and The Elusive Quest for Growth: Economists' Adventures and Misadventures in the Tropics has started a blog called Aid Watch. Put it on your blog list, it will be well worth reading.
