1: Wonderful
This book is absolutely wonderful. First, it is easy to read and it offers a rarely studied cultural perspective on economies in failed states, and in states with weak governments. The book is very well researched, and sources a number of other very good authors. The only draw back is that the book is almost entirely focused on the nomadic population in Southern Somalia, and offers little perspective on the merchant populations and no perspective on the Sab agricultural groups. Nonetheless, it was very informative.
