Economic analysis of investment operations : Analytical tools and practical applications

"Economic Analysis of Investment Operations is the kind of book that should be read by the technicians who do the nitty-gritty work of real-world project analysis. But it is also the kind of book that should be read by the managers and executives who are involved in supervising the preparation, evaluation, and execution of projects. It tells people what questions they should have in mind as they approach the analysis of a project, what sorts of data they will need, and what technical tools they will probably have to use. This book quite accessible to readers of, say, The Economist, The Financial Times, or The Wall Street Journal. It is certainly well-pitched for professionals at the World Bank, the regional development banks, and similar entities oriented toward investment operations at the national level." - Professor Arnold C. Harberger, University of California, Los Angeles
