This is a fine introductory text on some of the issues inherent in being a have and attempting to be helpful to a group where most are have nots. While the focus is on feasible (and non-oppressive) development efforts in rural Cambodia, the same lessons apply to any number of comparabe communities. Though basic, I found it relatively clear and thoughtful. It's a shame that it is not easily available; it can be ordered from the Sisters of St Joseph (address in the publication notice here) or found in the airports in Siem Reap and Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
