Read, read, read!

I find it hard to believe we're already done one course in the ICD program - I'm definitely looking forward to the continued learning.

I checked out a few books from the library that have to do with international development, globalization, etc, and thought I'd share them with you. I've only read the first book (and parts of the second) and will work my way through the rest in the months to come.
