He's a person who believes in doing what's right for the poor, and he believes that generally means working to increase their freedom. He has many sobering thoughts for people who want grand solutions, yet he must have a deep streak of compassion himself. Yes, you would like Easterly.

I would like to read some Easterly once I can get time to do some free reading, which likely will be during the summer. I agree with him, often the "good intentions" crowd doesn't worry about whether what they're doing has the intended effect, and usually there's money, fame, and political power involved, which is why it is hard to uproot.
