520 _aHow has India benefited from 30 years of official aid programmes? Michael Lipton and John Toye examine the impact of foreign aid to developing countries, focusing on India as an example of a very important recipient country. Drawing on their wide knowledge of different facets of Indian development, including planning, agricul tural development, public expenditure, and India's relations with the UK, they evaluate in an authoritative way the successes (and some undoubted failures) that foreign aid has contributed to the history of Indian development. Lipton and Toye examine the impact of aid at both the macroeconomic and the micro economic levels, and give special attention to aid as a means of poverty alleviation, the evaluation of aid projects, and the broader effects of aid on institutions and private sector markets. Their book will be essential reading for officials concerned with aid policy both in governments and international financial institutions, for economists and political scientists who analyse the aid process, and for students of economic development.
