In his previous Schumpeter Prize-winning work, Lee analysed the 'middle-income trap', in which a developing country grows strongly only to plateau at a certain point. Yet certain developing countries, most significantly China, have managed to escape this trap. Building on the conception of the ladder from developing to developed countries being kicked way, this book suggests alternative ways, such as 'leapfrogging', in which latecomers can catch up with their forerunners. Providing policy solutions for development challenges in non-technical terms, Lee frames his theories with insightful and inventive allegories. In doing so, Lee also accounts for the catch-up paradox, in which one cannot conclusively catch-up if they are continually trying to follow the path of those ahead. He argues that eventual catch-up and overtaking require pursuing a path that differs from that taken by forerunners. This highly original and accessible book will appeal to students, scholars, practitioners, and an

A compelling activity for crafters and artists, doodlers and colorers of all ages, each Paint by Sticker Kids book includes everything you need to create ten vibrant, full-color “paintings.” The original images are rendered in low-poly, a computer graphics style using geometric polygon shapes to create a 3D effect.

Add the next, and the next, and the next—it’s an activity that’s utterly absorbing, both in the pleasure of peeling and sticking and the growing satisfaction of watching a “painting” come to life, emerging from a flat black-and-white illustratio

★ 反烏托邦經典之作，在極權與控制之下，身體與自由的最後界線★ 女性主義代表作之一，震撼全球讀者的黑暗預言★ 在極權與控制之下，身體與自由的最後界線★ 越讀越真實的未來寓言，每個世代都必須重讀在基列共和國，一切都被重新定義——名字、身分、甚至身體。奧芙弗雷德（Offred）是一名「使女」，她的存在只有一個目的：生育。她被分配到指揮官的家庭，成為制度下的生殖工具，一旦拒絕，等待她的將是死亡。這個世界以宗教與秩序之名，剝奪女性的自由與權利，將人化為功能與符號。然而，在嚴密監控與壓迫之中，記憶仍在流動。她回想革命前的生活、愛與選擇，那些曾經理所當然的自由，如今卻成為最危險的念頭。在恐懼與渴望之間，她小心前行，在兩個男人之間尋找一線可能。《使女的故事》以冷靜而銳利的筆觸，揭示權力如何侵入最私密的領域，也讓我們看見，在最黑暗的體制裡，人性仍試圖發光。NOW A SMASH-HIT CHANNEL 4 TV SERIESWITH A NEW INTRODUCTION FROM MARGARET ATWOODThe Republic of Gilead offers Offred only one function: to breed. If she deviates, she will, like dissenters, be hanged at the wall or sent out to die slowly of radiation sickness. But even a repressive state cannot obliterate desire – neither Offred's nor that of the two men on which her future hangs. Brilliantly conceived and executed, this powerful vision of the future gives full rein to Margaret Atwood's irony, wit and astute perception.
