From Library Journal
This is an Australian doctor's account of his four months working for the Red Cross in Ethiopia during 1984 when the famine there had reached the world's attention. Harris vividly portrays frustration with inadequate living conditions, bureaucratic inefficiency and mismanagement, and politically motivated activities that contribute to starvation. But when he turns from description to analysis, he presents generalizations as flawed as those of the TV programs that attributed all of Ethiopia's problems to drought and overpopulation. Harris glorifies the colonial past and virtually ignores the country's long and bitter internal struggles. He speaks of Africaindeed, the entire Third Worldas if it could be analyzed as one country. For comprehensive collections only. Maidel Cason, Univ. of Delaware Lib., Newark
