Reading this as a Development Studies Masters stufldent. Very challenging, a labyernith, and hard to nail down what's more significant or central to the book, but a must read if curious about development in enlightenment, Hegel and Marx. ah, and the roots of intl dev banks in Austrian late 19th century bankng! oh well, and perhaps a dozen more things if i read it one more time. see?!

Goes well with "History of Development", Rist, right after, specially first few chapters of the later.
